<gnu_srs>youpi: Seems like starting the hurd console fails: This has effects on running X: https://paste.debian.net/1276262/.
<gnu_srs>Unfortunately Debian does not accept the paste from gdb: https://pastecode.io/s/oo8twui6
<youpi>I don't have the issue, so you need to investigate what is getting wrong in your case
<gnu_srs>This is how the console runs: /bin/console --daemonize -d current_vcs -c /dev/vcs -d vga -d pc_kbd --keymap se pc_kbd -d pc_mouse --protocol=ps/2 pc_mouse
<gnu_srs>No repeaters for kbd or mouse, and it makes window managers go nuts :(
<youpi>no kbd nor mouse in /dev/cons/ ?
<gnu_srs>This is the command by running /etc/init.d/hurd-console start: + start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --pidfile /var/run/console.pid --exec /bin/console -- --daemonize -d current_vcs -c /dev/vcs -d vga -d pc_kbd --keymap se --repeat kbd -d pc_mouse --protocol=ps/2 --repeat mouse
<gnu_srs>console: Too many non option arguments
<gnu_srs>Resulting in the above process.
<youpi>in my /etc/default/hurd-console, KBD_REPEAT reads --repeat=kbd, not --repeat kbd
<youpi>same for mouse
<gnu_srs>Yes, I editde default/hurd-console. But even with = the process running is as above:(
<gnu_srs>edited**
<gnu_srs>Thear are from /etc/init.d/hurd-console: + DAEMON_ARGS=--daemonize -d current_vcs -c /dev/vcs -d vga -d pc_kbd --keymap se --repeat=kbd -d pc_mouse --protocol=ps/2 --repeat=mouse
<gnu_srs>youpi: Have you even tried to run X lately?
<youpi>doesn't that need "" ?
<youpi>I have not even tried to use the Hurd lately, just ENOTIME
<youpi>if there are bugs, please don't assume that I'll keep magically have the time to fix them
<gnu_srs>I just wanted some help, it seems like command parsing is rather involved. Anybody else trying to run X in Hurd?
<gnu_srs>The script has "": DAEMON_ARGS="--daemonize -d current_vcs -c /dev/vcs" etc. The output is from sh -x /etc/init.d/hurd-console start
<frogmo>Hello, what is known about the gnu-hurd system?
<frogmo>Will it support ext4 files?
<frogmo>No one to answer?
