Subject: [9fans] wiki (update): supported video hardware
Date: Thu, 10 May 2007 23:58:07 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <0925724390b81cc2ff7b91e8ecae65ca@oarsank.ca> (raw)
What non-monotheistic hardware does Plan 9 support these days?
Starting with VGA hardware, let's cull the obsolete from the list.
If you run any of the below-listed VGA gear under a current (4ed+)
release, send an aux/vga dump (to me).
Some weeks from now I will collapse and update the wiki list.
