[9fans] [9front] enabling authentication on cpu server.

[Eric Lynema]

Hello, just getting into the world of plan9/9front here.
I setup a 9front cpu server, and configured a netboot setup so that I
can boot into it remotely, but it does not ask for a password for my
users, and infact, I can't seem to set one ether.

Things I tried so far:
auth/changeuser glenda : changeuser: can't create user glenda:
'/mnt/keys/glenda' create prohibited
local!/dev/sdC0/fscache -c : noauth, noauth, end : system refuses to boot
and maybe a few other things.

Just wondering if there was a guide I missed or research I didn't find
while googling for it?
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Eric

This description is somewhat confusing. Are you attempting
to cpu into your cpu server, or are you attempting to boot
a machine from it over the network? Do you understand the
difference?

I think I found it. I am trying to both cpu/drawterm to it and network
boot to it. I was mainly missing the auth server combined with the
noauth in the cachefs -c. Works great now.

[9fans] nvidia 7600GS works now

[kokamoto]

I managed to work nVidia 7600GS (10de/0392) card for Plan 9.
As I don't know to whom I send this patch, and it's very small,
I decided to post it here.

/sys/src/cmd/aux/vga/nvidia.c should be changed as follows:

===from here===
208c208
   case 0x0390:
---
   case 0x0390:/* nvidia 7600 */
810c810
   nv-pramin[0x0818] = 0x0100805F;
---
   nv-pramin[0x0818] = 0x0100805F;/*WaitVSync not 
 possible, if possible =0x01008062 */
929c929
   nv-pgraph[0x0608/4] |= 0x0010;
---
   nv-pgraph[0x0608/4] |= 
 nv-pfb[(0x0608/4)] | 0x0010;   /* K.Okamoto */
1013,1015c1013,1023
   } else {
   nv-pgraph[0x09F0/4] = 
nv-pfb[0x0200/4];
   nv-pgraph[0x09F4/4] = 
nv-pfb[0x0204/4];
---
   } else {/* K.Okamoto */
   if ((nv-did  0xfff0) == 0x0090 ||
   (nv-did  0xfff0) == 0x01D0 ||
   (nv-did  0xfff0) == 0x0290 ||
   (nv-did  0xfff0) == 0x0390) {
   nv-pgraph[0x0DF0/4] = 
 nv-pfb[0x0200/4];
   nv-pgraph[0x0DF4/4] = 
 nv-pfb[0x0204/4];
   } else {
   nv-pgraph[0x09F0/4] = 
 nv-pfb[0x0200/4];
   nv-pgraph[0x09F4/4] = 
 nv-pfb[0x0204/4];
   }

PS. nVidia 7950 card should work, too.
