Bug#927993: xinit: Cannot load NVIDIA drivers, doesn't connect to X server. No screens found.
Package: xinit
Version: 1.4.0-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
I am having issues with xinit, rendering it impossible to load into
my x environment.
* What led up to the situation?
I had installed Debian buster (switched sources file to buster), and
performed sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade, and sudo apt-get
upgrade. When I rebooted, I was unable to load into my X environment,
stuck in the tty.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
I have reinstalled xinit, as well as the NVIDIA (nouveau) drivers.
* What was the outcome of this action?
No change.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
I would have hoped the issue would have been solved.
Thank you for handling this issue, and providing me with a generally
stable OS to use. Cheers!
