+First, set up the keyboard translator. Using `/hurd/kbd` and `/hurd/mouse` are not supported. You should instruct Hurd console to repeat keyboard events to `/dev/cons/kbd`, and mouse events to `/dev/cons/mouse`:
-Then the mouse translator. For a serial port mouse this is along the lines of:
+ # console -d vga -d pc_kbd --repeat=kbd -d generic_speaker \
+ -d pc_mouse --repeat=mouse --protocol=ps/2 -c /dev/cons /dev/vcs
- # settrans -c /dev/mouse /hurd/mouse --device=com0 --protocol=microsoft
+Symbolic link needed for `kbd` should be created too:
-Make sure that `/dev/com0` actually exists. If it does not, create it using `MAKEDEV` in the usual fashion.
-
-PS/2 mice do not require a device. It is simple a matter of:
-
- # settrans -c /dev/mouse /hurd/mouse --protocol=ps/2
-
-For other mice, run `/hurd/mouse --help` to get a listing of supported types.
