Hi Ryan,
I do well follow your howto but when I launch:
"kill -HUP 66 (the pid of runttys)"
the following message comes:
"/hurd/init: /libexec/runsystem terminated abnormaly (segmentation fault)
I do verify that translator on com0 (the one I would use as serial console), is
well running. Also that /dev/com0 is well "crw-r--r-- 1 root 1000 0,0 Dec 8
12:23 /dev/com0". (com0 and com1 appears well detected by GnuMach)
And finaly after a reboot, I got the message:
"/libexec/runsystem line 140: 69 Segmentation fault ${RUNTTYS}"
I also 'apt-get dist-upgrade' with pakages I have got this Dec 6 and no changes.
I have not enough experience with hurd to define where is the bug:
The translator /hurd/term
Or the runttys ?
Thanks in advance for additional help,
Joel
PS: I am very interested because I do not yet find why xdm does not startx
rightly and I have no other means to take control of my box at this time.
