Subject: [9fans] Using nvidia TNT video card on installed system
Date: Mon, 16 Jul 2001 08:55:52 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Hw247.81364$ih.17549416@typhoon.southeast.rr.com> (raw)

Hi,
  I've had good luck getting plan9 installed using the binary install image
from http://members.optusnet.com.au/~nwaples/binaries/, but after install my
system knows nothing of the nividia vga driver. What do I need to do to the
installed system to have it support the nvidia card. On a related note, how
do I access the mounted floppy? I've read the man page stating that 'a:'
mounts the floppy, but writing to '/n/a:/' gives me a 'hang up' error :\

This identifer line works for me, but only with vga/640x480x8 monitor in
plan9.ini:
	0xC00A2="Viper V770 AGP"

Thanks,
  Brent
