Bug#803667: upgrade-reports: No Xorg: "no screens found(EE)"




Package: upgrade-reports
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,


-- System Information:
Debian Release: stretch/sid
  APT prefers testing
  APT policy: (500, 'testing')
Architecture: i386 (i686)

Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores)
Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)
Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash
Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)

I track 'testing' and upgrade every few days, almost always without any issues.  However a couple of weeks ago the upgrade caused my Xorg to fail with the above message.  Looking at Xorg.0.log, comparing a good version (running a backup) with the failed upgrade, the first sign of trouble is the message: "failed to set drm version".  

lspci reports my card:
NVIDIA Corporation GF119 [GeForce GT 610] (rev a1)

I use the nouveau driver. I have an Xorg.conf, but it works fine prior to the upgrade.  Removing Xorg.conf made no difference (I need it to get my dual monitors working).  I tried reinstalling every package that has 'drm' in its name with no change.  If it is relevant, recent efforts at upgrades on the broken install (I have expected that this bug would fix itself after a few subsequent upgrades) report something to the effect that the signature of the upgrade has not been updated--or something like that.
