Ok, My memory from about 1982...
first there was phillips who used 2 high speed, high linearity 14bit DACs
in their CD players using 4 times oversampling - as they had no apropriate
16bit converters at the time; which gives near 16bit resolution.
sony however developed a laser trimmed 16bit conve
Speaking of fonts in Acme, using the default,
I spent extra amount of time tracking down
a bug in my gs(1) source, which was the mix-up
between -lijs and -Iijs. Apparently 'I' is shorter
than 'l' by some portion of a pixel.
how could I possibly miss that

I thought I'd built gs(1) this way with proper ijs support,
but
I'm trying to get my circa 2006 laptop working with Plan 9.
Its a Gateway MX3414 with:
North Bridge: NVIDIA C51MV
South Bridge: MCP51 - ignored
NVIDIA GeForce Go 6100 graphics - works fine with 1024x768x16 VESA
NVIDIA MCP51 ethernet controller - not detected
NVIDIA MCP51 PATA controller - buggy? s
Thanks, very interesting read.
I think he lied, he was perfectly aware of how the piracy issue would
turn out, and he had it all planned :D

I appreciate the suggestions, and I'll
definitely look into them when upgrades
are in order.

Anyone here had a chance to try a Dell E4300? It's a nice, compact system, but
it really refuses to boot Plan 9:
It has on-board SATA hd, SATA cd-rom, etc. I tried quanstro's 9atom.iso, and
with the SATA controller in AHCI mode, it'll start booting, but hangs at:

Hi, I don't quite know what I'm asking, I'm just fishing for responses :)
I got a Matrox DualHead2Go which splits a vga signal across multiple
monitors. Atm. I have it driving two screen with a duplicated image but
if you supply it one of these modes :
edid 2048x76...@60hz
clock=113.75
This is pretty much a show-stopper for me. I guess it's time to find a new
laptop with supported hardware.
