Hi Lyndon,

Are you still searching for the Richard's image? I just checked, and I can access
sources from within Plan 9 (9fs sources), and I also tried to fcp 9pi.img.gz
(12mar2017) with success. If you don't have access to a running networked plan 9
machine, I can make it available somehow. But maybe you already solved the problem,
or I missunderstood it :-)

I wasn't aware of this image.  I downloaded/installed it, but USB is broken :-(  If I type *very* slowly, the keyboard gets the right character about 10 % of the time, the rest of the time it looks like line noise from a bad analog modem connection.  It even has a mind of its own and starts typing gibberish all by itself!

For the mouse, dragging is almost impossible.  Go any distance at all and usb sees a button-up event, so it's impossible to move or resize windows.

I've tried a couple of different keyboards and mice, so it's not specific to the individual hardware.  And the same Pi2 runs X under Raspbian just fine, so the Pi itself is okay.

So, still looking for one of Richard's standard Pi images ...
