Subject: [9fans] Inferno slow on Plan 9?
Date: Thu, 26 Mar 2009 14:18:59 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <f75780240903261118m4c1b67a0x682564019d06ded4@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Hi,

I'm running Plan 9 on a machine with a GeForce2 MX200. I've tried to
run Inferno in p9, but anything graphical draws painfully slowly
(several seconds to paint the white rectangle while Charon is
starting).

Is there any reason this might be happening? If its related to
Inferno's /dev/draw, is there any way I can import /dev/draw from P9
and use it in Inferno? Would that be faster?

Thanks,
-- vs
