To Plan 9, button 2 is the "middle" mouse button not the right button (the usual "button 2" on, say, Windows) which is likely a depressible wheel on your mouse. > On Feb 4, 2008 8:46 PM, Pietro Gagliardi wrote: > >> On Feb 4, 2008, at 8:44 PM, Pietro Gagliardi wrote: >> >> For USB, add this to the TOP of /usr/$user/lib/profile, above the switch >> but below the other bind lines: >> >> bind -a '#U' /dev >> usbd >> >> >> Scratch that.

The supported host controllers on Plan 9 are EHCI/UHCI. Correct me if I am wrong on this one. Assuming I am not wrong with that point, there must be some sort of unofficial/contributed drivers for OHCI on Plan 9. Instructions on how to install/configure them will be useful, I suppose. -- Using Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/mail/
