I also installed 9front in the meanwhile (python, pfff), and
learned that the (broken) hostname setup can be skipped during
installation, and how easy it is to set the german keyboard
layout!  That is really great (and it would be so easy to adjust
it as necessary!) design!

Acme in 9front doesn't respond to keypresses and starts hanging
around; i'd have a (rather useless though) 13997 bytes screenshot
of what happens on the controlling tty during this, in case noone
else has seen this and the behaviour is of interest -- it's just
that you place the cursor, hold down a key, and nothing visual
happens, but at times something comes back and then it seems as if
something has been queued somewhere, but not necessarily the key
that has been pressed (in fact the screenshot shows "bad character
in filename", which *definitely* not happened).  But maybe it's VM
related anyway, which might be true since i had to turn to VESA
which is not needed for Plan9 from Bell Lapps, which also doesn't
show the mentioned behaviour.
