Re: [9fans] Plan 9 wireless how-to...

You are probably pressing the wrong button....
I have a 2 button mouse, and I was using CTL+right button...
Seems like it is working everywhere - sam, rio... and even ACME ( except
toolbars...?)
It is really strange behavior... Or I was really too tired ... :)

But SAM saved me from that....

First, thanks a lot for the advices and help;

However, the theory to practice step seems to be a bit longer :)

1. about network:
- following your advice, found plan9.ini
- i managed to modify it with sam, ( for some strange reason, when
I'm
editing the file in ACME, the 'Put' option appears as soon as I modify
the
file - and that is expected; but after I select 'Put' and press button2-
nothing happens.... Actually seems like commands within ACME toolsbar do
not
want to react to button2 (?) ).

You are probably pressing the wrong button. 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.

For USB, add this to the TOP of /usr/$user/lib/profile, above the

but below the other bind lines:

Scratch that. There is a line in /usr/$user/lib/profile that reads

switch($terminal){

Above that, add

bind -a '#U' /dev
usbstart

usbstart sets up everything, including USB-based audio and the mouse.



USB add-in cards usually have OHCI host controllers, which Plan 9 does not
support out-of-the-box. 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.
