Subject: [9fans] newbie question - keeping up to date
Date: Mon, 12 Jul 2004 16:01:08 -1000	[thread overview]

Hi,  I'm using the plan9 vmware image.  Following the wiki
I do the following to keep up to date:

      disk/kfscmd allow
      replica/pull -v /dist/replica/network >[2] up.txt

after reviewing up.txt and removing any conflicting files (its
a clean dist so I figure updating everything is best) and repeating
I get a complete update.

At this point I reboot and login again and I notice a few things
no longer work properly:

   - up/down keys in rc windows.  Instead of paging up and down
     within the window they now just output some odd character.
   - menus in rc windows - never pop up.
   - status window - the status window (which is started by default
     for the glenda account) suicides.

What's going wrong here?  Are there additional update steps I
need to perform?

(Thankfully this is vmware and I can just revert the changes).

Tim N.
