xorg.conf wasn't created, 21xdriver is not running
Hi,
after rebuilding my live system I noticed that my non-english keyboard wasn't set in X. Looked at xorg.conf and it was empty. It should have my preseed options .
After searching why did this happen I saw a minor change since last month inside /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/live-bottom/21xdriver:
< if [ -n "${NOXAUTOCONFIG}" ] || [ ! -x /root/usr/bin/X ] || [ -n "${XDRIVER}" ]
---
> if [ -n "${NOXAUTOCONFIG}" ] || [ ! -x /root/usr/bin/X ] || [ -z "${XDRIVER}" ]
My boot options were:
initrd=/live/initrd1.img boot=live noautologin live-media-timeout=15 rootdelay=10 locale=pt_PT.UTF-8 keyb=pt vga=791 splash quickreboot quiet username=live hostname=cruzador union=aufs BOOT_IMAGE=/live/vmlinuz1
After googling I've read this:
[ -n "${VAR}" ] ## Fails if VAR is unset or empty
[ -z "${VAR}" ] ## Succeeds if VAR is unset or empty
Then I've created a hook to put back the -n option and rebuilt the live system again:
sed -i 's|\[ -z \"${XDRIVER}\" \]|\[ -n \"${XDRIVER}\" \]|' /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/live-bottom/21xdriver
After boot the file xorg.conf was created.
Please revert the change in 21xdriver.
Thanks.
