However, it doesn't work, perhaps because the home pages of plan9 at Bell labs don't work. I somehow have a feeling there are problems with those pages every now and then. Is it so? Why? May some mirror be used instead? If yes, what and how do I have to modify so that 'pull' then works? Also. My computer is Acer Travelmate 291LCi. It has a touchpad (2 buttons) and I want to use a usb mouse. After installation the touchpad works, but connected external mouse does not. Why? What do I have to do? There is a message saying something like '/dev/usb0/1/ep0data does not exists'. Last, the computer has a 1400x1050 screen, which is somehow not listed in its Bios table, so that I had to run some program to help it under linux (something like 855patch ; http://www.chzsoft.com.ar/855patch.html ; it has a 810i graphics on board). Is there a chance it would work in plan9? What do I have to do? Thanks Ruda
