Re: Availability of GUI on Debian HURD / development of

I noticed that I can get a terminal window in X (mouse right-click, a menu
appears). But the keyboard does not work (mouse is OK).

I have checked the "TO DO LIST" and things like that, but I am (still) not
sure how to "adopt" a project. If people on this list have some suggestions
for a "first try", please let me know.
