The last time I used it to write anything in C was like 8 months ago, and the instability issues I had in mind are dated from back then. So I'll give it another try and perhaps it will become my main plan 9 platform. 2010/3/13 ron minnich : > I build 9vx from source and routinely have it running for days, until > I need an ubongo reboot in fact.
