PROJECT STATEMENT
A
variety
of
low-cost
"embedded"
machines
support
Ethernet
and
USB
but
have
no
video
output
(e.g.,
Kuro
Box,
NSLU2,
Soekris).
Meanwhile,
there
are
a
variety
of
USB
VGA
adaptors
in
the
$80
range
(e.g.,
Tritton).
The
project
would
entail
writing
a
/dev/draw
driver
for
one
of
these
devices
(your
proposal
should
include
evidence
that
there
is
enough
publicly
available
information
on
your
selected
device
that
you
will
be
able
to
write
the
driver).
Note
that
on
Plan
9
a
USB
device
driver
is
typically
a
user-space
program
(i.e.,
this
project
will
not
require
kernel
development).
