Uncomment ip/ifconfig in termrc as Erik suggested or stick the four lines that I showed in termrc.local. I think there is some sequencing issue if you run them manually. Before switching the VB version try changing its network setting to NAT. With a different VB version you'll likely chase a

[9fans] Strings in acid, what am I missing?

2014-02-12 Thread Grant R. Mather
I've been trying to learn how to use the acid debugger for a few days now, but there are a few things I'm having trouble understanding. One of which is the syntax for dealing with strings. I have the following program: #include u.h #include libc.h void main(void) { int x = 10;

[9fans] alarm(2) again, or is it locking ...

2014-02-12 Thread erik quanstrom
i was tracking down a locking issue that was showing up as alarm() returning too late by up to 1/2 a second. this is not an issue in stock plan 9, because alarm processing happens on all processors. this gets around locking if you have more than 1 cpu, and at the expense of hammering the
