<yang>but somehow it is being stuck at "Welcome to Grub" it doesn't get past that...

<yang>when using -display gtk (or without -display)

<yang>doing it like this "qemu-system-x86_64 -m 2G -drive format=raw,file=debian-hurd-amd64-20251105.img,cache=writeback -no-reboot -net user,hostfwd=tcp:37.1.89.178:2222-:22 -net nic,model=e1000 -M q35"

<yang>aha

<yang>now it's doing something...

<yang3>it goes super slow

<yang3>ATOM is to blame

<nexussfan>Should the rumpnet tutorial page use lwip instead of pfinet? or are there some issues with lwip?

<sneek>nexussfan, you have 1 message!

<sneek>nexussfan, gnucode says: we have another hurd mirror website, and searching works! https://hurd.ion.nu/index.html

<nexussfan>sneek later tell gnucode the search works but the paths are wrong, like https://hurd.ion.nu/~hurd-web/open_issues/bcachefs.html should be https://hurd.ion.nu/open_issues/bcachefs.html

<sneek>Okay.

<damo22>can we just have one that works

<azeem>The Postgres buildfarm animal I'm running has recently seen both file-system as well as memory corruption, I need to debug this next week :-/

<azeem>like

<azeem>ERROR: 2 invalid pages among blocks 16..31 of relation "base/4/2609"

<azeem>DETAIL: Block 16 held the first invalid page.

<azeem>or

<azeem>+ERROR: message corrupted

<azeem>+DETAIL: The new and original messages differ at byte 48 of 852. SELECT test_shm_mq(100, (select string_agg(chr(32+(random()*95)::int), '') from generate_series(1,(100+200*random())::int)), 10000, 1);

<Alicia>damo22: I think the idea might have been for load-balancing, but unless I'm way off about the traffic Hurd wiki gets I think mine alone can handle it (I'm looking into the path issue)

<Alicia>it seems to be fixed after editing .ikiwiki/xapian/templates/query

<yang3>Alicia I signed up for a free tier VPS server at Oracle.com, maybe you can sign up as well and host the website there?

<yang3>I had to add credit card however to complete the sign up, but VPS is supposed to be free of charge

<Alicia>why would I want that?

<yang3>The other day jab suggested to host the wiki on VPS...

<Alicia>yeah but I have my own server so I don't see the point of a VPS

<Alicia>it's already set up, https://hurd.ion.nu/

<yang3>OK, I probably miss understood

<yang3>Nice
