Hi,

This is my first post in the list, so it is also my presentation.

I am running plan9 in a raspberry and I am writing this mail with
acme. I had a problem while I was configuring the mail system, and
maybe you are having the same problem. The default profile has
something like:

	prompt=('cpu% ' '	')
	fn cpu%{ $* }
	startupasfs
	news
	if (! test -e /mnt/term/mnt/wsys) {
		# cpu call from drawterm
		font=/lib/font/bit/pelm/latin1.8.font
		plumber
		auth/factotum
		exec rio -i riostart
	}

You can see that startupasfs is executed before auth/factotum, so
the namespace entries created by factotum are not seen by
startupasfs. I had to change it to:

	prompt=('cpu% ' '	')
	fn cpu%{ $* }
	if (! test -e /mnt/term/mnt/wsys) {
		# cpu call from drawterm
		auth/factotum
		plumber
		startupasfs
		mailstart
		news
		exec rio -i riostart
	}
	if not {
		startupasfs
		news
	}

You can see that startupasfs is now called after be sure that there is
a factotum running. Maybe, this was not the problem, but in my
case it began to work after this modification.
