Thats funny, the Plan 9 Supported Hardware page say's it supports a " Neomagic MagicGraph "

and I just so happened to have one ( Neomagic MagicGraph 128 ZV/TV+ ) and get an error when i try to run 9 after an Install ( Which was done on another computer ). Looks like that one can be stricked off the list....

Ok, the error I got with the Graphics Card ( " Neomagic MagicGraph 128 ZV/TV+ " ) when booting up 9 is as follows:

aux/vga: vgactlw: <typevga> : bad vga controal message "type vga"
