Hi, I just recently fell in love with plan9, it's a great operating
system, However there are somethings I do not know how to do.
1. How can I get internet through a ethernet cord?(I am not sure
which ethernet card I have , but the computer I have is a Dell
Dimension 1100.)
2. Were can I get a
time travel plots reminds me of an obscure but splendid czech film that i've
only seen once

but have yet to find on DVD. it is very funny.
i think it's a tradition at this point to use 0x20 and not 0x00 to
fill a fixed-with signature. ata identify device uses 0x20 to fill
out fixed-width fields like the serial number. i'd be interested
where this tradition popped up. 0 would make more sense.
I risk being wrong--as always--and
ut I used both of you commands, no error messages
ip/ipconfig -D
will print a little bit more (and i mean `a', `little' and `bit')
I can run Plan 9 quite nicely in 128 MB of RAM. In the same amount of
memory FreeBSD is paging nightmare, despite it's wonderfully complex
shared library environment.
You're wrong. Case in point: my FreeBSD 6.2-RELEASE installation on a 233
MHz PII (one of those Slot 1 processors) with 128 MB

Do you mean reading mail or setting up a mail server? For the former,
the easiest is to use

A suggestion for the next app to be supported in linuxemu: DjVu.
Since we don't have a C++ compiler outside of older versions of gcc,
getting a linux version of DjVuLibre up and running would be fantastic.

I'm glad you've asked ;-) In fact, there's a bigger context and it is
around managing processes run by cpu(1) from the terminal host. I was

Shared libraries do 2 possibly useful things:
1) save space
2) stop you having to re-link when a new library is released.
Now 2) doesn't really happen anyway, due to .so versioning hell,

A standalone statically linked binary is going to be considerable larger

But that static binary only flies once, geting sucked into memory
with a (mostly) simple bcopy equiv at process launch time. Shared
