I actually have a higher-res version (10x the size) that I can play
with to try and enhance a bit better. I'll give it a shot in my
copious spare time and maybe we'll pot it up on 9con.org.

G'Day!
Just like to ping any Plan 9 users in the Ottawa Canada area, and those
interested in getting open source/alternative software into the
Government of Canada.
Other subversives working with Linux, BSD, etc.
Meet regularly for beer and talk on Fridays.
Useful link: http://www.goslingcommunity.org/
Look forward to seeing you there.
For more information, you can email me off-list,
Robert

I don't have a group picture, but I have jpegs of Eric, Ron, Tim
Newsham and plan 9 running on Xen 2 on Ron's laptop. I've also used
rsc's mug program to generate face images, ericvh.[12] and newsham.1.
All of these can be found at www.collyer.net/where/2004dec6.9bof.

Thanks geoff.
It's nice to know the faces whom we are discussing through network.

Please Ron, explain what is the view of acme of the screen for us
who did not attend the bof, particularly why we can see graphic
images of Plan 9 on Xen.

Plan 9 runs under Xen as a guest os, or domain. Linux is domain 0, and
hence is "special" in that it can initiate and control other domains.
Linux talks to Xen to start the other domains. So to start Plan, you log
into linux and:
1. losetup /dev/loop0 your-plan9-root-image-file
2. xm create -f /etc/xen/plan9 -c
starts up a plan 9 domain, domain 1 or higher.
The -c switch gives you a telnet console to the plan 9
console. It uses the 9pccpu kernel in the current directory.
3. drawterm to the plan 9 domain.
So, sorry, that graphics was drawterm, nothing more. You can see the
window manager bar from X11 on the far left side of the screen ... I was
running that drawterm on desktop 2 of the window manager (the wm in this
case was flwm). It's fun to flip back and forth between plan 9 and the X11
world with <Ctrl>F1 and <Ctrl>F2.
graphics may happen, but again for graphics you need to write a driver for
the display ... not simple, which is why I did this in the first place.

Thanks Ron.
Now, I got it right.
By the way, I fetched xen-2.0.1-src.tgz and also unstable version,
but those doesn't include your Plan 9 port. Haven't you released your
codes yet?

Sorry, still working it. The paperwork is in, we're trying for a world
record release time of < 1 month this time.
Which seems long to me, except I know for other people I deal with that's
really fast.

No, no, Ron, Don't worry about it.
I just had interest what is Xen 9port, though I have no time
to try for it now. We all have limited time for ourselves!

Yeah I'm still interested in the project as a whole but at this time I
can't easily put a lot of time into it due to real life and other
commitments :(.
I'm going to be keeping an interested eye on it though :).
