Interpreting deadlock info

I have a trace flag 1204 on my sql2k box. It prints out deadlock info
when they occur. I got the dump below. My question is how to interpret
a line like
RID: 9:1:587432:0
I know how to interpret lines that start with KEY:, but not RID and I
can't find any documentation.
Wait-for graph
Node:1
RID: 9:1:587432:0 CleanCnt:2 Mode: X Flags: 0x2
Grant List 3::
Owner:0x21e53740 Mode: X Flg:0x0 Ref:0 Life:02000000 SPID:193
ECID:0RID is row ID, the format is DBID:FILEID:PAGEID:ROWNUM
Using DBCC PAGE that I mentioned in my reply to your other post, you can see
the actual rows on the page.
