Yes, struggled for several weeks, but only to be expected.

What do I expect of a new operating system?  I would like pppd and X
yesterday; but these are not ready yet.

I have been running the Hurd six months.  The Hurd is reasonably stable,
I have only wrecked it once.  I can do native builds of the Hurd, gcc and
TeX.  I can make it "buy the farm" by doing a large Java build;  by the
way,  why is buying large quantities of land bad?
