I agree. One problem is that these things are all different,

I have no problem believing this is true, but I'm also sure there's more to it
than that. The device I'm most frustrated with is a Thinkpad, reporting on the

Hello,
the result below is on one of my machine with GA-H61M-USB3H.
the MB is nice with 9front.

thanks for the confirmation!

In my experience a VESA BIOS will sometimes report
different available modes depending on the detected
EDID.
The following cards reported the following modes when
the following EDIDs were detected:

There is a complete lack of usability, unable to open new windows and such so I
have put plan9front on it.

I'd love to hear about positive results here. Cards with VESA entries for
non-4:3 modes are rare; I'm not sure I've ever seen one. The Pi, by contrast,
drives my 16:10 high-res monitor without issues, which is the main reason it's
my main Plan 9 terminal these days.

Has anyone managed to get Plan 9 running on an IBM Thinkpad T60? I can't get
past installing the mbr when I've tried.
Hi,
I have got hold of a new 1920x1200 monitor but no card I can find seems
to support it on plan9 - Even cards that claim this resolution and higher
don't have the vesa mode entry.
Anyone any thoughts, or suggestions of cards that do
have the apropriate high resolution VESA modes?
Thanks,
