Re: [9fans] out of physical memory; no swap configured
2010/3/12 erik quanstrom quans...@labs.coraid.com: How do other operating systems detect the available RAM? Could Plan 9 use the same method? plan 9 uses the same methods for detecting ram everyone else does. perhaps we trust bios too much, but 8mb isn't impossible, either. try a *noe820scan=1 at the 9load menu prompt. - erik Hi, I tried it and didnt work, I got the same output. Maybe its time to trust BIOS less... :( Greetings: Bela
[9fans] out of physical memory; no swap configured
Hi, I used Erik's 9atoms.iso to install Plan 9. When its booting, after its asking for root partition and username, I get the error message repeated: out of physical memory; no swap configured. Why, oh why? I use fossil without venti, on a 2GB partition, the RAM is also 2 GB. I found the message in http://plan9.bell-labs.com/sources/plan9/sys/src/9/port/swap.c - static void pager(void *junk). Greetings: Béla
[9fans] unrecognized ethernet card
Hi Everybody, I installed Plan 9 on a new computer (Erik's 9atoms.iso), it doesnt recognize the ethernet device (there is no /net/ether0). I wonder if something can be done. If changing configuration doesnt help, I hope its similar enough to an already supported device, so a few changes here and there can make it work. By the way, I was also wondering, when will Erik's SATA support arrive in the main distribution?

Re: [9fans] Shall we fix the use of Up/Dn arrows?
I agree, but only because PgDown and PgUp do the same as the Down and Up arrows. Having two pairs of keys doing the same thing on the keyboard is a waste. On the other hand, I found it easy to get used to the Plan 9 approach. Its comfortable for me either way, I only think that this modification would add a new functionality to the interface. 2010/1/23 Yi DAI plm@gmail.com: Hi, I am new to Plan9. This request sounds quite simple/naive. Don't think that I dislike the Plan9 ways. I enjoy it a lot. But it doesn't mean that it needs no improvement/fix, right? OK, here is my suggestion. We shall fix the use of Up/Dn arrows, I mean, instead of using it to go one page up/dn, use it to move the cursor up/dn one line. Here are two reasons for this: 1. We use Lf/Rt arrows to move the cursor, don't we? Then use Up/Dn to do the same kind of task is symmetric, and thus more reasonable. 2. We already have PageUp/PageDown keys which do the task of paging up/dn, and symmetrically, Home/End to move to the first and last page. EOT -- DAY

[9fans] plan9.iso and 9atom.iso fail on SATA IDE system
Hi, The test subject is a desktop PC, it has SATA primary harddrive and IDE master optical drive (according to the BIOS).

Erik's 9atom.iso in AHCI mode works! hard drive is sdE0, CD is sdE1, bad process or channel control request: dma on, touchpad is ps2 mouse, vga works with 1024x768x32, installation successful. -4. trying to boot, after I log in as glenda, fossil says repeatedly: out of physical memory, no swap configured RAM is 2 GB, partition is 2 GB, i selected fossil only, i accepted the default in prepdisk (i admit, i didnt look at it carefully, but it was never a problem before).

it wasn't expected that anything would change. i was interested in the e820 output. if you would send that along, that would be helpful. - erik Oh, sorry. The install disk wrote '54 e820', the installed system already writes '1 e820' without this line added.

Re: [9fans] Plan 9 hg with private repositories
Presumably this is because ssh is sshv1 but bitbucket requires sshv2. Russ Correct me if I am wrong, but an sshv2 server is also providing sshv1 too. Maybe when the Plan 9 ssh client is facing sshv2, instead of shutting down with an error, it should try sshv1, or wait until its offered, i am unsure about the mechanism here. Just an idea, I am really not an expert here. Greetings: Béla

I just tried a clean install, the error message is not there, and ps show only 4 usbd threads.
[9fans] manpages broken/outdated
I have checked it on 3 different installations, the 'usbdisk' manpage is missing, on fresh installations too. Its not a filesystem corruption for sure. Most other USB-related manpages still list the nonexistent -f and -l parameters for the 'usb/disk' command. Greetings: Béla
Re: [9fans] manpages broken/outdated
Erik: thank you for helping, I see that the usb(4) manpage is up to date. The old usbdisk(4) manpage had a working example for attaching a FAT filesystem formatted USB hardrive. Can you tell me, where I can find the updated version of this example? Thanks: Béla
Re: [9fans] manpages broken/outdated
Well, then simply running 'usbfat:' is supposed to work, right? I see the warning about the untested drivers in usb(4), so a bug is no surprise i guess... I try to create a proper bugreport with exact hardware specification then. 2009/8/10 erik quanstrom quans...@quanstro.net: On Mon Aug 10 08:30:37 EDT 2009, bval...@gmail.com wrote: Erik: thank you for helping, I see that the usb(4) manpage is up to date.

Re: [9fans] USB HDD connection problem
- usb/usbd is up and running - the only option in my BIOS is to turn USB off - I am sorry, i dont understand the part about the old and new USB devices and tools. can you explain a bit?

Re: [9fans] USB HDD connection problem
There is more: I don't have a usbdisk manpage. '%man usbdisk' complains that its not there, but if i do a '%lookman usbdisk', the manpage is listed as a hit, so it must be in the search index. My 'usb/disk' command doesn't have -f and -l parameters at all. I downloaded the installation ISO file on the 4th of june. Do you know something about it? Both 'usb/usbd' and '/boot/usbd' complain about the same (busy devices), and the rest of the commands simply doesnt find anything in '/dev'. So, I cannot try the example in the (nonexistent) usbdisk manpage, not to mention the nonexistent -f and -l parameters... Can you help me? Greetings: Béla 2009/8/6 Bela Valek bval...@gmail.com: Forgot to mention, I tried to start /boot/usbd manually, i got error messages, it said that the epX.Y and port numbers are busy or something (i dont have the exact error message here, sorry). 2009/8/5 Francisco J Ballesteros n...@lsub.org: It seems you dont have usbd running.

Re: [9fans] installing from sdC0 or sdC1 CD
I was able to install from sdC1 in the Bochs emulator. If you install and your CD is not sdD0, you get this prompt: Unknown boot device: sdD0!cdboot!9pcflop.gz Boot device: fd0 boot from: If its sdC1 (like in my case), the answer has to be: boot from: sdC1!cdboot!9pcflop.gz More info about the install at http://plan9.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/installation_instructions/
Re: [9fans] Help needed - Boot Failure...
Hi, If Erik's fix works for Lyle's installation, I suggest that you include it in the distribution. Greetings: Bela (the annoying include it in the distrib guy)
