Hi!
I use acme in vmware (windows) with two different virtual machines, a
Plan9 virtual machine and Linux+p9p virtual machine. The problem is the
same.
When I make r-click in acme (to search, or open a file), and the mouse
jumps to other place in the screen and vmware lost the mouse referenc

No, the problem is _not_ vmware. At least to the extent that vmware
is just another hardware model. The only really unfortunate thing
about vmware is that they are holding a few cards close to their chest
with a view to making a bit of a profit. It may n

Hi Lucio,
I am happy with vmware. Is very good environment for my plan9, because
my wifi card is not supported, ...
"the problem is vmware" is to avoid comments about it.

No offence intended or taken, I just thought that vmware generally get
an undeservedly bad rap on this list :-)

I tryed xen, qemu and vmware ... and IMO vmware is better for my plan9
virtual machines.
In other thread (probably long) ... we need think about to support any
emulated software. We are not many people and write drivers is a hard

Ron seems to do all the necessary exploring of novel VM approaches,

from time to time i might need to do some non-programming work.
on linux, there are a great many applications, but almost as many are

why not give it a shot?
writing drivers is the most straightforward and rewarding
part of my job.

Have you found some devices with fully documented programming interfaces,
which actually behave as the documentation describes? Lucky man.

There I agree with you. But I like solving puzzles.

Hello, 9fans!
When I plumb ip(3) in acme the output is corrupted (near the bottom).
"man 3 ip" output is ok.
What's wrong? Thanks.

for vgavesa, you can find this on /n/sources/patch/saved/vesasoftscreen.
it's been there for a some time.
for all the cards that have support outside the vesa driver, it's probably
easiest to say monitor=vesa too, since you lose acceleration anyway.
the related mtrr or the pat patch is good to hav

To clarify Rob's point, the phrase "moral equivalence" comes with some
pretty hefty baggage. In modern usage it's primarily a right wing
term, used to derogatorily refer to leftist arguments. "Morally
equivalent" arguments typically assert that pro-western groups have

In short stories both Asimov's robot and Fred Saberhagen's Berserker
