perhaps my last reply wasn't clear. although i have an ncr card in the
machine, the
fs kernel and plan9.nvr are both in a 100M dos partition. the partition map
is

and a 512byte plan9.nvr added.

You're supposed to be able to just stop moving the mouse,
wait a second, and it will correct itself. Occasionally the
PS2 protocol skips a byte and the mouse driver gets confused.
This used to happen to me on a laptop with a trackpad,
especially if the trackpad got zapped with a static electricit
okay. 9load was confusing me. even though my syntax is still a bit off,
i think the hd!randomstring!plan9.nvr was interpreted correctly.
i dissassembled the part with the page fault dissassembled the offending

since ax = 0 and dx
nvr syntax is different from nvram syntax. plan9.ini(8) has the whole
story, but briefly

should work. "fd" will work instead of "hd" for floppies but "sd" for
scsi is not implemented for reasons lost to history (at least in the
Unix Room). I've considered taking a stab a

okay i need h0!. sorry for the silly question. but now i get a panic
that i'm not sure i understand.

i can't seem to properly specify the nvr file in plan9.ini for the
fs kernel.
i'm booting off cd with a 100M dos partition with plan9.nvr.
this partition was copied from my plan9 terminal.
i've tried
sdC0!dos!plan9.nvr
hdC0!dos!plan9.nvr
i get a panic "no device for nvram".

The effect is not reproduceable, yet it of course happens if you move the mouse
a lot (which is, kind of ironically, when you are really working :P). Without
