Pulled latest sources from mercurial, not working for me. I can see a
window openning and immediately see it crashing
I am using the latest 9vx on old distribution, just replaced the exe.
Compiles fine on a Sabayon 3.5.1 x86_64

9vx panic: boot process died: sys: trap: page fault pc=0x1020
aborting, to dump core.

think about it...
lame will compile on a cell phone.
lame will compile on a glorified memory stick 
it's probably been compiled on the embedded OS of an external HDD
if it had USB, lame would probably compile on a toaster

-hey, that's a thought: iToast, with downloadable shades and a pat of 
butter you can't replace.  ...or would berkeley get upset?

(sorry to just go off unannounced like that; I've followed plan9 for a 
couple of years now and run it on one of my boxes because I like glenda; 
but I normally hang out in ALT.*, and you know we have no manners there.  
I see a setup like "LAME compiles on..." and I'm supposed to leave it 
alone?)

[9fans] acer aspire one

2008-12-12 Thread Bruce Ellis
Anyone had any experience with a "acer aspire one". Atom proc, SSD.
lotsa goodies. US$240.

One got delivered to the hill today. Tiger quite likes it. It has some
batshit version of linux on it.

If anyone has had fun with such a beast let me know. Looks like a good
traveller.

Re: [9fans] acer aspire one

2008-12-12 Thread akumar
Yes Bruce, I've had a little fun with it. Its destination was
family members (kids) in India, in rather difficult conditions.
It did not survive there (from what's gotten back to me, it seems to
be just a software issue -- something to do with the GUI being broken,
and thus unusable for the kids).

But I'll be getting either that one back, or a new one, soon enough.
Did you have some adventures in mind?

akumar

It seems a little odd that the log starts with
a partial word.  It is posible that if you did

9vx -PSX >log 2>&1

that somehow the fd offsets for 1 and 2 are
not being maintained properly
(I don't understand it, but I've seen it).

Sometimes it works better to do

9vx -PSX 2>&1 | cat >log

Aha! I now remember seeing that one. But since its been
more than 2 weeks -- I guess the question is, whether
web interface to sources has any chance of recovering.

Thanks,

> is the keyboard horrendous?

it is. both the aspire and the Asus Eee PC make my chubby fingers
suffer. monitor is also tiny (especially on the Eee). i'm sticking
with the macbook as the smallest still usable for programming laptop,
especially since i can stick an sufficiently large SSD drive in it and
not worry about banging it (much).

Eee comes in a larger size now (10", i believe) but i ahve not tried that.
