Related question I can't seem to track down an answer to:
I have a 9front cluster which was set up back when Mercurial was used,
so that is what sysupdate is looking for.
I finally realized that I am no longer seeing updates because 9front
switched to git.
How does one go about upgrading
Students who rely on that will never really learn.
From my perspective, most supposedly modern systems have been a bigger
waste of time than some of the older ones.
Windoze, Linux, etc. in some ways still have not caught up to features

already there but has not been tested; it may be that a good starting

Making host drivers compatible with these (if not already available) to
share an IP stack and creating the equivalent device-side support for

I was actually thinking of a somewhat different approach to providing a
more modernized user interface.
Consider that rio currently exports the required files for each window,
which provide the same interface as the display driver underneath them.
Now consider adding a new "control manager"
Partially to answer an earlier question and partially to emphasize just
how different Plan 9 is: you "log out" by rebooting.

Turns out it is the same as anywhere else in Plan 9 - tap ALT (not hold)

I don't think the touchscreen technology has figured out how to

The rio environment would need to identify if you were using finger 1, 2

I see...
That certainly could have been made less clear :-)
Maybe it would have helped to have put "Syscall" in parenthesis or
quotes or something; as it is it looks like the rest of the entries in

Somehow I missed the authdom= entry in /lib/ndb/local and it was

I added that and rebooted, and now all is well.

When I tried bringing it up as a cpu server with auth enabled it did
