For those of us who didn't see TVX, what's TVX? :-)
And, if your hardware won't work, i really strongly recommend you look at 9vx.

Those of you who say TVX at IWP9 last month: on a recent trip to
tahiti I took a diskless laptop (T23, disk removed) and TVX was really
very usable on that 8-year-old, small machine, where ubuntu was quite
unusable. The more I use TVX the more I find it quite nice as a "Plan
9 on a hardware platform that is unfriendly to Plan 9" system.
