It's homebrew, a package repository for OS X. OS X already comes with a
ruby interpreter anyway. And this allows anyone to compile from source qemu

Sounds like the keyboard went idle (on its own!?) and the Rasp lost

When I installed p9ports in my new Macbook Air (around 4 months ago),
fontsrv didn't compile "out of the box," I had to compile it separately.
For me all available fonts read perfectly well and sharp (Mac OS X 10.9 on
Air 13" and Mac OS X 10.6.8 on Macbook 13")

Hi all,
I am trying to use a Cherry USB Keyboard (with ID card reader... of
course I don't need the reader with P9 but it's the USB keyboard I
have at hand) with P9 in the Raspberry.
The keyboard works just fine with all other Raspberry OSes I have

Hi all,
The newest version of VirtualBox (4.2.16) works with Plan9 (at last!)
but I can't figure out how to set up networking (I had no trouble
setting it up with qemu before.) For reference, I'm using VirtualBox
(the version described) in a MacBook. I have tried bridget and NAT for
all adapters,

My fault: I had created a function named ag in rcmain (my first try
involved a function and writing :ag something to test how to call rc
functions from within acme and get this search feature working.) I had
completely forgotten until a few seconds ago: removing it makes it
work as expected.
Hi everyone,
yesterday, out of boredom and geekness I decided to add a plumbing
