+ <C-Keen> hello hurders! I happened to watch samuel's gnu hackers talk and
+ wanted to start to use the hurd more regularily. However I noticed that
+ when I use the preinstalled image, there seems to be some issue with the
+ console driver
+ <C-Keen> when I start emacs the mode line is drawn 3 times above the bottom
+ of the screen
+ <C-Keen> is this know or did I miss a step in setting it up? Or should I
+ use the debian installer and start from scratch again?
+ <youpi> C-Keen: it's probably unknown, and not an issue on your side. Did
+ you try to upgrade to the latest packages?
+ <C-Keen> youpi: doing that now
+ <C-Keen> my base image is debian-hurd-20130504.img
+ <youpi> still an issue with the latest packages indeed
+ <youpi> it seems emacs and the hurd console don't agree on the number of
+ lines...
+ <youpi> C-Keen: you can set TERM=vt100 to work around the issue
+ <C-Keen> ah alright.
+ <youpi> or TERM=linux
+ <C-Keen> youpi: can you start the emacs in X? I get an empty window here
+ <youpi> I never tried
+ <youpi> I never use emacs :)
+ <C-Keen> I see ;)
+ <youpi> it seems there's a bug in cud1 indeed
+ <C-Keen> what's cud1?
+ <youpi> see man 5 terminfo
+ <braunr> yes it's a terminfo problem
+ <braunr> the hurd console isn't well defined there
+ <youpi> braunr: actually it seems like a bug in emacs
+ <youpi> cud may or may not scroll the screen, depending on the
+ implementation
