retitle 206620 xserver-xfree86: server fails to start because it cannot find core pointer severity 206620 normal tag 206620 + moreinfo unreproducible thanks
Dear bug submitter,
In addition to filing your bug report against a nonexistent package
("XFree") and providing insufficient version information, your bug does
not contain enough data for us to rule out a configuration
problem on your end.
In the future, please file bugs using the "reportbug" package and
command of the same name; it will do some forensic work for you, and
hopefully make the process of filing a bug less tedious.
Please reply to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with the information described
in the XF86Config(7) manual page. It's worth noting that the
"reportbug" command will include this information automatically in bugs
filed against the xserver-xfree86 package, if the information is
available.
Here's the relevant section of the XF86Config(7) manpage:
When reporting bugs to the Debian Bug Tracking System in
xserver-xfree86, be sure to include a copy of your /etc/X11/XF86Con-
fig-4 and /var/log/XFree86.0.log (or whichever log file the X server
used - see XFree86(1x)) files in the bug report. Many problems with
the X server are the result of poor configuration. Furthermore, this
information aids the Debian Developers in determining your hardware
scenario.
