melanopus
- The Red and Black Anemonefish [Amphiprion melanopus] usually has
one white bar on the head behind the eye, although some fish lack a
bar. Its breast, belly and dorsal fin are red to orange. Much of the
side of the body is black. (source: australian museum

How and when machine obtained:
History prior to arrival at UCC:
- Melanopus was the GFS locking server for FSI's filesystem cluster.
UCC history of machine:
- Melanopus is sitting in the clubroom as a user machine, where
seriola used to live.
Current machine tasks:
- General purpose Linux desktop machine;
- cross-compiler
Current software configuration:
Current hardware configuration:
- 2x 733MHz Alpha EV67 processors with 8MB cache
- 1.5GB RAM
- 18GB SCSI disc
Future plans for machine:
Special notes:
- Onboard USB is meant to be supported by the OHCI driver, but doesn't
seem to work under the latest Linux 2.4.
- Something in Debian's Linux 2.6 kernels prevents sd_mod from loading
properly. No SCSI driver == bad.
Thanks:
- Fugro Seismic Imaging for their donation of the machine, and
- PXY and TRS for making it work.
