The CVS tree now has support for it. Most recently, support for the second SCSI controller has been added. Graphics support is still non-existent. (Use a serial console for initial setup.)

Actually, how much work is involved in porting to another sgi machine?

Has anyone taken up the indigo2 /dev/fb project?

I've got an indigo2 extreme here and I'll be itching to start playing with it (both the 2d and 3d) as soon as I get a second drive and drive enclosure...but probably won't be much more than weekend tinkering.
