Thank you, I'd like to try ssh. Would someone be willing to share what qemu and ssh commands they are using to establish the connection? -----Original Message----- From: Jan Nieuwenhuizen To: Christopher Howard Cc: Ludovic Courtès , 40542@debbugs.gnu.org Subject: Re: bug#40542: wip-hurm-vm build failure Date: Tue, 14 Apr 2020 07:46:48 +0200 Christopher Howard writes: > I'm having some trouble playing around with the VM, because a lot > ofweird things are happening with keyboard input into the qemuwindow. > It seems like the meta keys (shift, ctrl, alt, super) arebehaving in > strange ways, or that terminal state is getting corruptedsomehow. > E.g., sometimes shift key stops working, or the cursors jumpsup to > the middle of the screen, or text gets garbled. Since yesterday I've been seeing that too. I'm pretty sure that if youbuild a VM from core-uupdates, the console is fine. I haven't looked into the details of the console/tty setup, so I musthave messed-up something. Sorry! Meanwhile we do have ssh login :-) The startup now goes like this startup -> runsystem -> init -> runsystem.hurd -> rc -> shepherd and; i would like to move towards -startup -> rc -> shepherd if that's possible.
