From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2009 18:23:06 +1000 From: Sam Watkins To: Fans of the OS Plan 9 from Bell Labs <9fans@9fans.net> Message-ID: <20090930082306.GD5045@nipl.net> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.5.13 (2006-08-11) Subject: [9fans] 9vx is really excellent, link it on the bell-labs pages? Topicbox-Message-UUID: 79a2b316-ead5-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025 I just installed 9vx under Linux on my eee pc, it's a delight to be able to run 2 or 3 instances of plan 9 with no bother under Linux! I can't really run Plan 9 as my main OS at the moment, but it seems there's not a big performance hit to run it in 9vx. I want to say "thanks!" to Russ for packaging this up (and to the plan 9 devs of course), and I want to suggest that there should be a link to 9vx on the main plan 9 website. I suppose most of the people who are interested in Plan 9 would be Unix / Linux users like me, it's a very good way to try or use it for those people. Sam
