You can't use `-d pc_kbd' for the console and the /dev/kbd translator simultaneously. > Suddenly, the screen becomes black, and the computer > blocks.

There is a keyboard repeater for the console in development.

Changing the /servers/crash symlink to might make your box a bit more stable (but that will not fix X...). Try setting it to something like /servers/crash-kill. (I am not sure if the paths are correct, but it is something like this :)) So if you want to use XFree, close the Hurd console for now with ctrl+alt+backspace. -- Marco _______________________________________________ Help-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-hurd
