Package: xserver-xfree86
Version: 4.2.1-12.1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
I am not exactly sure where the problem lies on this one. I normally
just upgrade a package or two as need be. I had just upgraded a bunch
of KDE stuff, and so closed all X sessions and then let apt-get
install everything. After apt-get was finished, gdm could not start
the login session for a user which had KDE (Debian) as the session
manager. Since then, every attempt to start X has failed.
[Update, I have now gotten X to run from kdm (gdm still dies).
Tale of the story below. I don't know if you want to adjust
the severity level as things now run, but without reconfiguring
X and switching from gdm to kdm I would still not be running.
Whatever the problem is, mozilla/galeon is now broken. ]
The first possibility I looked at, was that the last error showing in
the logs or ~/.xsession-errors dealt with /dev/input/mice. Since I
don't have a USB mouse, I first tried creating /dev/input and making
mice a symlink to /dev/ttyS0 (I should have used /dev/psaux in after
thought). There were also messages about some missing symbols in
libGLcore.a and libspeedo.a. X still wouldn't start. I then edited
~/.gnome2/gdm so that it wouldn't use "Debian" (KDE) as the window
manager. This didn't help. I then started editing
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4 (as you can see below). I started by editing out
the font path to speedo, and the modules load stuff for speedo and
GLcore. Trying to startx again, I got another error which led me to
trying to also comment out glx, leaving me at the config you see
below. This still doesn't work.
I have known for a while, that the management of the configuration
for X has changed in Debian (to what it has now). I don't remember
as to whether there were any minor problems in the transition. After
the first edit to /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, I followed the instructions
at the top of the file vis a vis saving a custom configuration.
I am getting a DeprecationWarning about xreadlines when I do this
(dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86) followed by a configlet in path
is bad. (I wonder where debconf got a screen size of 17"? This monitor
is 21", and has always been here.)
Other people in my lug have suggested things. Some kind of problem with
libfreetype6 conflicting with gsfonts-other. I've looked in bug reports
for xserver-xfree86, libfreetype6, gsfonts-other and see nothing which
really looks similar to this problem, with a recent time frame. Well,
there is one report, which was closed because a virus was found in a
followup message?
I'll try reconfiguring all of X (xserver-xfree86) with xf86cfg and then
purging gsfonts-other, and after that installing older versions of
xserver-xfree86. If you have suggestions as to how to trace things
(as I am not receiving error messages now, but it still won't start)
or where the problem lies, I'ld be happy to hear them.
Running xf86cfg (after moving /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 aside), I went
through the configuration process, setting values to what they should be
for keyboard, mouse, card and monitor. When I go to save things, it
asks if I want to write /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XF86Config. I can't say I've
seen that location for a X config file before. :-) Okay, change it
to /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. Now it wants to write a keyboard config
file to lib/X11/xkb/X0-config.keyboard. No idea what the leading
directory is, and my system never had a X0-config.keyboard file before.
/etc/X11/xkb doesn't contain any files like this, nor does it seem
to be the place to put this. And there is no /etc/X11/lib. Since
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb seems to be a symlink to /etc/X11/xkb, I guess
I can let it write this file and see if PWD is pointing to /usr/X11R6.
If I run X -probeonly after reconfiguring with xf86cfg, I again get
these symbol errors:
Skipping "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/extensions/libGLcore.a:debug_xform.o":
No symbols found
Skipping "/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/fonts/libspeedo.a:spencode.o":
No symbols found
Other than those 2 Skipping ... messages, everything in
/var/log/XFree86.0.log looks normal. startx succesfully starts X,
gdm still won't start X (tries 4 times and quits). Nothing strange
(besides the Skipping ... messages) in XFree86.0.log or gdm/:0.log.
Editing /etc/init.d/kdm to change the HEED_DEFAULT_DISPLAY_MANAGER
to false, I find that kdm will work, and both X and KDE seem to start
okay.

You no longer have an X problem. Even if you had, the severity of this
report would have been inflated. Please file bugs at normal severity
and trust the package maintainer(s) to upgrade it to the appropriate
severity. (Only if xserver-xfree86 didn't work for anyone would the
"grave" severity be appropriate.)

This probably was not a necessary thing to do and I would revert it.
Fatal errors are generally described as such in the server output.
All that's happening is that a USB mouse is configured as an alternate
mouse. This is for the convenience of Debian users that have USB ports.

I wouldn't have expected them to. You seem to have been shooting in the
dark. The folks on the debian-user mailing list can probably help you
with troubleshooting in the future.

Okay. Given that you have the X server itself working again, I'm
guessing there weren't any actual problems here.

That's a Python error, and neither xserver-xfree86's configuration
script nor debconf are written in Python.

That's the default that is used when no information about the monitor
can be retrieved.

That probably has something to do with your problem. That a piece of
spam closed a bug report should not be taken as evidence that a bug was
actually resolved, by the way.

In the future, I'd rule out X client problems first of all.
As, root, simply run the command "X". If that brings up the little root
window weave and the X cursor, then *you do not have a fatal X server
configuration problem*. The X server is working. Use
CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE to kill it.
Alternatively, if you're using a display manager and you can see the
greeter (login screen), then the X server is running: *you do not have a
fatal X server configuration problem*. Most failures after that point
are client-side problems. (Yes, there are bugs in the X server that can
cause it spontaneously crash, but if the X server "crashes" immediately
upon logging in to your X session, it's probably a client side problem.)

This is why people shouldn't use xf86cfg, and why I continue to suspect
I shouldn't even ship it. I thought I documented the fact that people
should use the debconf interface to configure the X server, but I guess
that message doesn't come through loud enough.

As I said above, those are harmless. The XFree86 4.x server is very
chatty. Not everything that looks like a problem is one.

Sounds like there is a problem in gdm or one of the libraries it uses.
I think the person in your LUG was probably right about you getting bit
by the latest bug in libfreetype6. You might have saved yourself some
time if you'd been a little more critical when reading that report; a
piece of spam marking a bug as done is not legitimate usage of the
Debian BTS, and tells us nothing about the status of the underlying
defect.
Closing this spurious report. Thanks for taking the time to write all
of this up anyway. It gives me food for thought as to the desperate
means some users will attempt when they're convinced something is the X
server's fault (despite evidence to the contrary, even...).
