[9fans] Small Plan9 box suggestions.
Hi all, Can anyone help shed some light in my search for a "low power" minimal plan 9 hardware setup to start experimenting with. Has anyone had success running plan 9 on a Fit PC (the only atom box we have access to)? Gumstix would be ideal, but their plan 9 support is a bit half baked right now. Wireless support would be a huge plus. We are trying to do a bit of research into robotic applications of plan 9. The p9 filesystem protocol seems like a real neat method to acquire resources of nearby "bots". Allowing for very minimal, modularized robot configurations. Any tips? Am I out of my mind? Thanks, Jason
[9fans] non GUI editor for plan9
Hi all, Set my plan9.ini vesa resolution incorrectly... I get dropped to a shell on boot, but I don't know of any non GUI editors for plan 9. Can anyone suggest an editor? Thanks, Jason
Re: [9fans] non GUI editor for plan9
I used sed and cat. Now up and running fine. On Mon, May 2, 2011 at 7:23 PM, Jason Dreisbach wrote: > Hi all, > > Set my plan9.ini vesa resolution incorrectly...

[9fans] FTDI usb/serial not mounting in /dev
I have a gsm module with an ftdi serial chip on it. When I plug it into my machine I see usb/serial ... eiaU0 pop up in rio, but I cant find it in /dev/. In usb (4) it says that it usually mounts the fs in /dev. Any advice? - Jason

No... I wasn't. It is working correctly now. Thanks. - Jason On May 3, 2011, at 1:36 AM, Francisco J Ballesteros wrote: > are you mounting #s/usb in /dev ? > > On Tue, May 3, 2011 at 7:20 AM, Jason Dreisbach wrote: >> I have a gsm module with an ftdi serial chip on it.

Re: [9fans] nice terminal...
I saw this as well. I hope it becomes a reality. $25 seems like a bit of a stretch though. - Jason On May 6, 2011, at 3:17 PM, Gorka Guardiola wrote: http://www.raspberrypi.org/ G.

Re: [9fans] Hey, new to this. Trying to get plan9 to work in a VM.
Try using 9vx to get used to the environment. http://swtch.com/9vx/ - Jason
Re: [9fans] Hey, new to this. Trying to get plan9 to work in a VM.
My roommate had quite an experience trying to get 9vx to work on the new ubuntus. The big problem is the 64 bit. Have you tried running it on a 32 bit linux? I think what worked well for him was a ubuntu 9.04 32 bit install. - Jason
