Hey folks,

yesterday I installed Plan 9 to my ThinkPad (X30) and the graphical
installer worked fine (with 1024x768x8 and xga). And now if I first login
with user glenda the display gets fading green into purple - looks scary.

I had this once with a wrong or old/buggy intel driver under linux also ...

Can't I just use the driver like in the installer?

Regards, y0shi


Here is what linux tells me with lspci:
