I just installed 9vx under Linux on my eee pc, it's a delight to be able to run
2 or 3 instances of plan 9 with no bother under Linux! I can't really run Plan
9 as my main OS at the moment, but it seems there's not a big performance hit
to run it in 9vx.
I want to say thanks! to Russ for
I think it's officially a port of Plan 9's kernel to the vx32 stuff, so it's
not precisely the same as running a Plan 9 box natively, or in another
emulator, but it is indeed quite a feat, and close enough that most people
won't notice.
Personally, I'd love to be able to completely replace

My drawterm also pops out of existence sometimes when I'm using Acme.
If I restart it and open the same file,

I've also *just* had the disk go bad during the install to a qcow2 disk,
at 90%+ too :(
(or at least I think it went bad, I had lots of /n/newfs not found based
errors)
I started over with a raw disk instead
I think we owe the vx32/9vx guys some help here.
So here's the question. 9vx is running. It breaks. How should we go
about providing
- useful diagnosis
- useful backtracking
There are some tools. Worst case, those of us who see it die from time
to time could elect to run it under gdb for a
Now I have to confess I can't recall how to print all the thread
callback stacks when 9vx breaks, not having had to do it for a year or
so but ... I'm happy to set up a gdb for it and do what commands are
needed should it break. Any recommendations here Russ?
