Package: installation-reports Severity: important
After performing a fresh install of Debian Testing (using debootstrap), udev is unable to detect input devices. After installing the X-server as well as the gnome suite, issuing a `startx' at TTY1 resulted in a graphical X session starting, but without the functioning of the mouse/touchpad/keyboard. As such, a hard reboot is the only option. The user may think that configuring Xorg is the solution, but the solution that works is to remove the /run directory. This is a bug in either udev or the installer itself. This also seems to be related to the following bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=620995 -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.39-1-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
