<jab> hello hurd people!
<AwesomeAdam54321>hello jab
<jab>so I can't get this last example to work: https://darnassus.sceen.net/~hurd-web/hurd/documentation/translators/
<jab>I created a "dummy" filesystem, but I can't write files to it.
<jab>I did have to create a filesystem with "sudo mkfs.etx2 dummy.fs".
<jab>apparently mk2fs is not installed by default?
<youpi>mke2fs
<jab>$ mke2fs silly.fs
<jab>command not found
<jab>I was able to get it to work with "sudo mkfs.etx2 silly.fs"
<jab>but that sort of defeats the purpose of "not needing to be root". :)
<youpi1>jab: /sbin/mke2fs then
<jab>kk
<gnucode>So it sounds like solid_black is going to live stream his rebasing his hurd glibc patches for arch64 this Saturday June 1st probably at 2pm UTC. Anyone want to join in the live stream?
<biblio>gnucode: yes, I would like to join the live stream.
<nikolar>i'd like to, though i probably won't make it
<gnucode>biblio: sounds like a plan
<gnucode>I'll post the link to the jitsi room probably just before we start streaming.
<gnucode>I'll post the link in the #hurd channel obviously. :)
<oldfashionedcow>that sounds like great fun - is it open to all to watch?
<biblio>gnucode: waiting... :)
<gnucode>oldfashionedcow: anyone can join in! sure!
<oldfashionedcow>epic!
<gnucode>If someone wants to volunteer to record that would be cool too!
<gnucode>I'm probably going to send everyone a jitsi link. So you'll just need a modern web browser. Firefox or chromium.
<oldfashionedcow>perfect
<gnucode>odd question. The Hurd has wanted to move to lwip for a while now...what makes that move so hard? Is it because we do not have wireless/ethernet drivers from rump yet?
<azert>damo22: any updates with your experimental professional audio drivers?
<gnucode>damo22: I would like to create a RFC document that explains your audio plans for the Hurd
