Hi all,

Well, I bought an "ATI Xpert 98 AGP = X2" video=20 card and have managed to install Plan9. FWIW, the chip itself says = "RAGE=20 Mobility-L" although I'm using it in a Dell deskstop.

(As an aside, the install procedure = was very=20 pleasant. Certainly more humane than FreeBSD. Reminded me a = lot of=20 the BeOS [RIP] installer.)

However, the display is messed up w/ = left-hand=20 side of the screen repeated and the right side consequently falling off = the=20 right-hand side of the screen. Can I fiddle w/ VGADB to fix = this? Or=20 do I have to "upgrade" my video card yet again?

Thanks in advance.
