Hi!

I'm trying to run Inferno on Linux. The installation runs smoothly and executing
% /usr/inferno/Linux/386/bin/emu
runs ok too, ending up with the inferno shell, but when I execute
; wm/wm
the window manager shows for 0.5 seconds and then it dies with:
Locking assertion failure. Backtrace:

Any feedback is welcome.

This is why I don't use X11 :-)

You did say ANY feedback...

There is a framebuffer Inferno out there for linux "somewhere" also, in case you continue having trouble.
