+    <nalaginrut> braunr:  x15 can be compiled successfully, is it possible to

+    <braunr> nalaginrut: it will never be
+    <braunr> x15 isn't a drop in mach replacement
+    <braunr> for now it's stalled until i have more free time :/
+    <braunr> i need to rewrite virtual memory, and then implement ipc
+    <nalaginrut> oh, it's planed for standalone one?
+    <braunr> it's planned for a hurd clone
+    <nalaginrut> sounds bigger plan than I thought ;-)
+    <braunr> it is but not that much actually
+    <braunr> it's just i have really little free time currently ..
+    <braunr> and i chose to spend it on the hurd instead
+    <braunr> it's easier to fix bugs when you have little time, than think and
+      write big and difficult features like an smp scalable VM system
+    <nalaginrut> yes, I understand
+    <nalaginrut> it take huge time to think and design
+    <nalaginrut> and relative easier to fix the current one
+    <braunr> well, the whole thing is thought already
+    <braunr> what's hard is taking care of the details
+    <nalaginrut> well, you're so self-confident, to my experiences, even if all
+      the designs are in my mind, issues may make me change the original design
+      a lot ;-)
+    <nalaginrut> alright, I saw the key line, everything exists, just assemble
+      it

+    <teythoon> i bought a new mainboard for my hurd box
+    <teythoon> a ga-e350n
+    <teythoon> everything looks fine, grub loads gnumach, and, (afaict) it
+      starts it, but i see no single line printed by gnumach
+    <teythoon> the thing is, that this is the second board of this kind that i
+      bought
+    <teythoon> and on the first one, gnumach did work just fine
+    <teythoon> i tried it with a live cd, the same cd worked on the first
+      board, but does not on the second
+    <teythoon> also, i'm kind of surprised to see nothing at all from gnumach
+    <teythoon> i mean, it's loaded by grub
+    <youpi> teythoon: you could try to put *(char*)0xb8000 = 'X' starting from
+      c_boot_entry
+    <youpi> just to see at least something
+    <teythoon> i'll try, thanks :)
