Greetings!

I have X up and running on GNU Hurd (Debian K8) on my
IBM T41 (ATI 7500)! Thanks to marco_g and bddebian
from ##hurd. Currently running Blackbox. Using rxvt
and xterm for terminals.

After the base installation, one needs to follow this:

http://hurd.gnufans.org/bin/view/Hurd/DebianX

to setup X. The touchpad is used for mouse control.
Have disabled loading "dri" and "speedo" in the
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 file. Will check by enabling
them.

I shall put up a documentation soon.

Regards,

K Shakthi
