Regarding the 810, you can use vmware to run Plan 9. --upas-xtoarqzadhkrdxplehfdktrwwj Content-Type: message/rfc822 Content-Disposition: inline Received: from mail.cse.psu.edu ([130.203.4.6]) by aquamar; Mon Jun 23 11:16:27 MDT 2003 Received: from psuvax1.cse.psu.edu (psuvax1.cse.psu.edu [130.203.6.6]) by mail.cse.psu.edu (CSE Mail Server) with ESMTP id AD17019A96; Mon, 23 Jun 2003 05:16:12 -0400 (EDT) Delivered-To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu Received: from mercury.bath.ac.uk (mercury.bath.ac.uk [138.38.32.81]) by mail.cse.psu.edu (CSE Mail Server) with ESMTP id 06B3819A91 for <9fans@cse.psu.edu>; Mon, 23 Jun 2003 05:15:16 -0400 (EDT) Received: from news by mercury.bath.ac.uk with local (Exim 3.12 #1) id 19UNF4-0000Uc-00 for 9fans@cse.psu.edu; Mon, 23 Jun 2003 10:04:02 +0100 Received: from GATEWAY by bath.ac.uk with netnews for 9fans@cse.psu.edu (9fans@cse.psu.edu) To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu From: Santanu Chatterjee Message-ID: Organization: University of Bath Computing Services, UK Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Subject: [9fans] Need some info Sender: 9fans-admin@cse.psu.edu Errors-To: 9fans-admin@cse.psu.edu X-BeenThere: 9fans@cse.psu.edu X-Mailman-Version: 2.0.11 Precedence: bulk Reply-To: 9fans@cse.psu.edu List-Id: Fans of the OS Plan 9 from Bell Labs <9fans.cse.psu.edu> List-Archive: Date: Mon, 23 Jun 2003 09:02:55 GMT Hello everybody, Just heard about Plan 9 a few days ago. When I found that it was created by the original UNIX creators, I just have to try it out. But after some browsing I found that Intel 810 integrated video driver is not supported. Also plan 9 seems have the GUI integrated into the OS unlike Linux. If that is the case, can I still install it on my computer ? Please help me out. I really do want to try it out. --upas-xtoarqzadhkrdxplehfdktrwwj--
