I see, well I removed the cdrom. But when installing plan9 I entered ega (or was it cga?!) in order to not start rio. Maybe I should just run through the installation process again - which is extremely slow here. Anyways, text mode now works fine, but when I'm changing /dev/vgactl with "echo type vesa > /dev/vgactl" and "echo hwaccel off > /dev/vgactl" after a reboot the file turns out to be the old one looking like this: type cga bland time 30 idle 0 state on hwaccel on hwblank off panning off addr p 0x0 v 0x0 size 0x0
BTW: When I enter "echo type vga > /dev/vgactl" i get echo: write error: bad VGA control message "type vga". And it seems that I cannot edit the file with ed. Philip Silva
