Hi,

I was wondering if it's possible to run a command similar to this to stream VMX from a compatible CPU server to an incompatible terminal:

rcpu -h 192.168.0.95 -c vmx [args]

Does this display the actual VM on the terminal or  is it just displayed on the CPU server? Or maybe another issue?

this is plan 9: we try to avoid special cases.

vmx is just a devdraw client like any other; there's
nothing special here. it uses whatever devdraw it has
in its namespace.

rcpu binds the terminal's devdraw into the namespace,
so vmx will use it.

Not yet. Just asking before I buy the necessary things to try.
