Re: [9fans] Terminal possibliities...

2016-09-30 Thread John Weaver
It's not the bandwidth, it's the latency. I have been playing around with 
this for a few weeks now. I have it working on T60 that has the kernel, 
9fat and a cfs partition locally with the root on a vps 80ms away. There 
are pros and cons vs drawterm to the same machine. Things that I have not 
explored yet are 1) running a local build and binding $home from the vps 
or using the vps as a cpu server.

It would be interesting to hear how this works out in practice. The bandwidth 
requirement is probably so low compared to typical traffic from a hotel, 
compared even to smart phones.

Is anyone here using Plan 9 as a terminal to connect to remote CPU / File 
servers over the internet to get work done?

If I set up a small Plan 9 cluster at home, I'm thinking it'd be pretty neat to 
be able to connect to the network at home over the internet.

While I have a laptop and could put 9front on it, I also really like the 
thought of carrying around a little Raspberry Pi and portable keyboard/mouse as 
an alternative.  Sitting here in a cheap motel room, I realized that all the 
hotel rooms I've been in over the past few years have a decent flat screen 
television that takes an HDMI input and has had decent, if not amazing, WiFi to 
the internet.

I have used the trendnet tu2-et100 with rmiller's image on a model A. I 
seem to remember that device name bounces around on a model b, depending 
on the port it is plugged into. I stopped using the pi for plan9 before 
9front added the stable-name-for-usb code, so I can't speak to how it 
would act today.

I wonder, aloud, if an spi connected ethernet interface might be an
acceptable solution:
