Here's where I got the info for the mouse setup. http://kt.zork.net/debian-hurd/dh20000712_54_print.html Well, I finally got my copy of "Programming Under Mach" from an out of print book dealer. Adding this to my shiny new copy of "Debugging with GDB," I am getting dangerously close to being able to port some programs to Hurd :-) I never did fully understand how to make a proper deb though. I have compiled tons of tarballs in Linux to /usr/local but am still pretty mystified as to where stuff should go in a real deb. Well, time to brush up on the subject I suppose. - Doug Jim Franklin wrote: > could you send me the url for the mouse message below and I'll get it > published with the xwindows info at hurd.gnu.org > > Thx > Jim > > -----Original Message----- > Also, I dug this out of the mailing list archives, but maybe > it should be added to the Hurd FAQ > > --- <snip> --- > > Q.
