hurd (20110319-1) unstable; urgency=low

    To harmonize with Debian security conventions, the Debian
    GNU/Hurd login prompt is now a standard login/password prompt,
    and not a login shell any more. To revert to a standard login, set the
    shell of the login user to /bin/bash.

    The Hurd console may now be started automatically on bootup.  The
    file `/etc/default/hurd-console' controls whether the Hurd console
    will be started, and if so, which options are used.  To get the 
    Hurd console on bootup, change ENABLE to `true' and adjust the
    other options to your liking.

    The command line syntax for the console client has slightly
    changed.  It is no longer necessary or even allowed to specify the
    consnode path to the short `-c' option (e.g. `-c /dev/cons'),
    /dev/cons is implied as default (but can be changed using the long
    option, `--consnode=FOO').  When using the mouse or keyboard
    repeater, the console client command line should now be as follows:
      console -d vga -d pc_kbd --repeat=kbd -d pc_mouse --repeat=mouse \
        -d generic_speaker -c /dev/vcs
