I to agree with you. This
I was trying to upgrade some packages in base, and had conflicting
dependencies, in my wisdom(?) i removed a couple of base packages.
shellutils conflicts with hurd,
Im not going to try and remove hurd
login depends on libc6, libc6 isnt available
libc0.2 is in base though

iff you're looking for something _really_ challenging, you may be interested
in helping to port the Hurd to L4. Mach is really an outdated microkernel

Works for me, too!
I downloaded, patched, built, and installed X 4.01 last night. But I
didn't get it configured or running.
Today, got it configured. Had a problem with the mouse, patch attached.
This causes the mouse to be opened RO instead of RW (-allowMouseOpenFail
no longer needed).

Hi there,
I'm new to the HURD system and my knowledge about programming under
Linux/UNIX/FreeBSD is limitted. In fact it is non existent. Therefore I
will be the one with the stupid questions about anything.
I installed the system from a tar archive (2 weeks old) and it worked
just fine. After so
Hi,
That was easier than I expected. A simple counter increment was missing from
the mouse code, so it didn't receive any events. Now it works.
In fact, it works excellent. XFree86 4.0.1 is just not supporting my graphic
card, so I can only run 4bit color depth in 800x600 ;) Also, my graphic

Hi!
I have been a silent reader of this mailing list for sometime now. I am
an undergrad cs student and I'll be starting work on the my Honours project

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately the kernel-part seems to be missing
