<gnu_srs>Hi again. I replaced ext2fs and ext2fs.static with files from a running hurd. And it boots :) Which of the Debian patches are needed with an up-to-date git hurd?

<youpi>gnu_srs: nothing that I can think of, most debian patches are either already in git, or mostly benign

<youpi>note that it may be a difference in glibc itself

<youpi>possibly there the local-no-bootstrap-fs-access patches are needed with uptream glibc (even if in my memory it was needed only in debian)

<youpi>tg-hooks.diff is not supposed to be useful, but who knows

<youpi>that's all I can think of

<Guest9875>im trying hurd

<Guest9875>is there any games i could play on it?

<Guest9875>i am really curious

<youpi>nethack probably works :)

<youpi>apparently there is a doom clone that works as well

<youpi>more generally you can try any game from the debian distribution, it may already be built

<Guest9875>how i can get back to the tty console

<youpi>it's not implemented yet

<Guest9875>i did startx and de started how can i exit

<youpi>ctrl-alt-backspace

<youpi>unless you forgot to enable it

<Guest9875>ty

<youpi>see https://www.debian.org/ports/hurd/hurd-install

<Guest9875>i am so hyped for hurd

<Guest9875>i will make a game engine

<Guest9875>for hurd

<zamfofex>Guest9875: That’s adorable! 🎉 Do you have plans for any Hurd‐specific features or implementation?

<zamfofex>Guest9875: You might be able to play Liquid War (either 5 or 6, maybe even both).

<Guest9875>the game engine will have his own graphics

<Guest9875>in C

<Guest9875>and it will be easy for making games in C

<gnu_srs>youpi: thanks. The version of glibc I use is 2.36, with a few patches applied: git-ip_mreqn.diff, git-net-route.h.diff, tg-mach-hurd-link.diff.

<gnu_srs>But not: unsubmitted-clock_t_centiseconds.diff or any other Debian patches.
