Package: hurd
Version: 1:0.9.git20220301-1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: dufr...@zoho.com

Dear Maintainer,
when I startx with Daily.iso, as root or as a normal user,
after having done the dpkg-reconfigure stuff, I get:
xinit: unable to connect to the server

and Xorg.0.log contains a line with:
fbdevhw does not have a fbdevhwModuleData (newline) data object.

Please send the whole log, not only a random line that could or could
not be informative.

Ok so it's really about the int vect error. We don't have an fbdev

Works fine with 20210812
In tasksel, I choose graphical environment and XFCE.

When choosing mirror, in other versions I was choosing germany.

In 20210812 I first choosed netherlands (only choice), but it did not work.
So I go back and choose no mirror this time.
