Additional note by sigbj-st: I put an add here to the comments below: Trying out the operations to reach X-window/DebianX under The Hurd on an other machine - mach2- , the startx ran throughout the whole procedure ending up with these messages:
'AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0 (EE) VGA(0) Depth 16 not supported by this driver. ' Does anybody want to see the /var/logXFree86..log, just tell me. This is the first log trying out startx ever on mach2 (pc_machine_nr_2) The problems related to my report below belongs to mach1 Hope you do not get confused.
