Swarm intelligence needed - identification of "special" IBM RS/6000
I got an IBM RISC Syteem/6000 Type 7006 Model 410 (or 41O?) of which I cannot find any information. Does anyone know details or even has documentation? What's special? It contains a GT4xi - otherwise run of the mill.

Installing an IBM RS/6000 7006 Model 410 with AIX 4.2.1 - highlight: GT4xi graphics :)

OK, the card seems to be dead... anyone got a GT1x, GT3i or GXT150 to let?

Swarm Knowledge to the rescue!
I got an IBM 7011 Model 220 with the GT1 graphics. Which does not work with my TFT (I suppose). It's only creating a "full white" screen. Not sure if it is the DIP switches on the card, tried a bunch of settings. Mostly the screen stays black ...
Console via serial is working fine. -
About to finally win my fight with the bitchy RS/6000 IBM 7011 Model 220 ... after denying to accept a NEC, an Apple, a Pioneer AND A Toshiba CD-ROM - acquired a Plextor and voila ...

How about a dirty RS/6000 with a leaked battery?
The projects never end ...Anyone experienced "no console output" on S1? Seems to be the case on the one ...

I miss the era of no cost spared Unix workstations with nice features like the system couldn't be powered off unless you had the key to unlock access to the power switch like here on IBM RS/6000 deskside workstation:

I almost forgot that I have an #IBM RS/6000 somewhere. 🤔

@derickflorian @AndySocial Before that, there was #PHIGS. Different beast, but that was my first exposure to #ComputerGraphics for electromagnetic field visualization on an #IBM #RS6000 running #AIX

In grades 5-7, I started learning to program in #BASIC on Atari 400, #Atari800, and TRS-80 (and got an unfortunate lesson in their differences).
In grade 12: UCSD #Pascal on #Apple2 e
In college: #COBOL on a CDC Cyber, #Fortran on an IBM 3081, Borland #turboPascal
on PCs with MS-DOS, #C on a Sequent Balance and IBM #rs6000, and #C++ on PCs running WindowsAlong the way, I got familiar with a #hexKeypad and once used a #cardPunch. (I made some hardware too.)
I'm still learning new stuff...
