Check ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/hurd/contrib/marcus/keymap.tar.gz (or similar), and check if it works for you (you will have to define your own keymap file, but it is similar to linux). Oh, and we can't change the font, so you won't get any umlauts or special chars correctly. > - The network settrans -fg ..... works ok, but doesn't stay up across > reboots... since it's not defined as active shouldn't he stay? Yes. Are you sure it doesn't stay? What does showtrans /servers/socket/2 say after reboot? It only comes up if there is a connection request, and with the first request there might be a delay, but otherwise it is fine. > - I can't mount the linux partition (settrans -fg /linux /hurd/ext2fs > /dev/hd0s2), it computes ok but when I try to access it it either > freezes or says something akeen to the >1GB error (more info on that > one tomorrow, I really don't recall the exact error) How big is the linux partition? > - fetchmail gives me a SMTP (can't connect to localhost Query=10) > error after he founds there is mail in the remote server, when it > tries to dl it; it's not hurd specific I reckon, since IIRC I had > the same problem before in Linux; again, prolly exim.

Some stuff is at alpha.gnu.org/gnu/hurd/debian, there is a new dpkg, and apt, and X soon, and you should install those (it is apt-able). > - After I do a 'login root', after the password it says 'mesg: command > not found'; Yes, I know, I have to install mesg... but I can't within > dselect... I will really have to check my dpkg ftp source lines. The bsdutils and util-linux package at alpha.gnu.org will be of help. Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
