I think the BLOBs are platform specific, but I may be mistaken. If
I'm right, there's no way that we'd get any momentum to turn this
around.
But your earlier comment is extremely valid, too few people are
working on drivers. Without wi
if linux can use binary blobs, why can't plan9 do it too?

Not that I know of, although a port to the PAPR virtualization layer
would not be difficult. The closest is probably the libOS work I

I'm happy using those of charon for inferno and

The growing integration makes you own at least one of each :-(
I got the impression that Ron's particular bugbear was the integrated
wireless adapter.

Any ethernet or video card that Plan 9 doesn't support (there are
plenty).

No, but I use a Macbook Pro,
