Re: [9fans] installation usb mouse
Hi Armando, in any case, you can edit the plan9.ini: If you are in console, you can edit it using "ed". The first time is not very easy, but only the first time ... If you are in rio (user glenda), you can edit doing: Hit enter, because the window on the top is selected. You can try with ed too. What is your usb controller? Your laptop have an ps2 connector? and touchpad? > Hi everyone, > > I would like to know how can i install a usb mouse on my laptop, > because i was trying with usb/usbd > usb/usbmouse > with no success,also i can't modify anything in the plan9.ini because > the laptop mouse doesn't have the scroll button.

Hi Erik, I try it this morning, but the server don't boot. I cannot say nothing about the problem, because the server is "far far away" and we don't have console.

Re: [9fans] P9p's mount(1) on linux
In my opinion,
the Uriel patch is better. If you check for the words "9p(2000)" and
"fuse" (without spaces, end of line, start of line, or other things)
probably the patch will be "kernel independent"
The "lsmod" output format can change in new releases too.
Saludos.

Here is the problem: If I compiled fossil and now, doing the mk with pccpuf, show me an error with libip.a :-? Then, I compiled libip.a and now the kernel is compiling ok.
