> Welcome to a source distributed, buyer supported book,

Yes, the way of getting Plan 9 from japan has become much easier
these days.   My friend bought it from mail-order book store on
the internet.   This may imply Plan 9 got a chance to be spreaded
more widely in Japan...

I have a video card that sounds the same as your your s3 vision 968
(IABE3) except that it says made in japan and has a single Stealth 64
video VRAM 1995 Diamond 2.07 RAM on it (I have no clue how much RAM). I am
trying to get it working in Linux but have had not luck. I saw your
posting somewhere on the web and wondered if you had any information about
getting this card working.

Thanks.

Greg

Not to sound too much like a smart *ss... :-)

Buy a card that Plan9 supports or write a driver for
the one you like.

I bought a video card: Trident 9680 P with 2 MB. In Plan 9 I can use only resolution of 640X480X1. This card has the following features:
	64-bit GUI  and Video Acceleration Hardware
	High Resolution True Color Display
	VESA SuperVGA BIOS Extension in ROM
	PCI Local Bus Plug and Play suport
	Windows 95 PnP and DirectX Support

How may I proceed to get high resolutions?

	Thanks.

Franklin.
