Hi,
I am a plan9 newbie but quite familiar with FreeBSD and Linux.
After reading a lot about plan9 I want to see it myself.
I downloaded the iso-file and managed to get it booted as well, but
it failed at starting rio under the install procedure saying that
the graphic install couldn't be started.
I think my gfx card (Matrox G200) is the problem.
I looked at
http://www.cs.bell-labs.com/wiki/plan9/supported_pc_hardware/index.html
It says that Matrox G200 is supported in the third edition.
What can I do? Do I need to be more specific about the error msg?.
Best regards,
Andreas Jensen

Add PCI vendor and device id of your card to vgadb, Matrox G4xx section.
