Well, the output of showtrans /dev/* for mouse and keyboard is as follows:
/hurd/mouse protocol=ps/2
/hurd/kbd /dev/kbd
seems physical while my mouse is ps/2, and i have a standard
keyboard.However, there is a patch in
UCHIYAMA Yasushi home page (hurd-xfree86.patch) that I don't use:: how do
I install this patch?
maybe this is the gen of X crash.
And something else,(might be usuful ) in order to install libc0.2(2.1.95) I
use this command
dpkg --install libdb2..... libdb2-util.... libnss-db...
libc0.2_2.1.95....
Thanks alot, I'm waiting for a response.
