I have most of the X11 libs ported to Plan 9, so I can compile things like xeyes, of course I don't have an Xserver, yet... I'd built an SDL kdrive X server, but as soon as a client connects it crashes I thought it was SDL port's fault, so I built Xvfb which does everything in a virtual framebuffer and had the same problem, so it's not SDL's fault. my guess is that the problem is between X and ape's select/listen/etc. now, the question is why do I want X, well... http://www.tip9ug.jp/who/fgb/opera9.jpg there you have opera and Xvnc under linuxemu and a vncv(1) window to display everything. so, yes I have opera on Plan 9 (thanks to cinap) but it's kinda overkill. if anyone wants to help with the debugging , mail me off list oh, and about limbo on Plan 9, of course that there is a native limbo compiler for Plan 9, you'll have to to run your .dis inside limbo, but that's not problem at all, because inferno doesn't waste your memory.
