I have not upgraded any other X packages. When xdm tries to start, according to /var/log/xdm.log : server /usr/bin/X cannot be executed This comes from /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers, which has this path hardcoded. My X server seems to be in /usr/X11R6/bin/X, provided by xserver-common 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4. My guess is that the location of the X server has changed recently, and that if I now upgraded my other X packages it would now work properly. But I'm not going to test this. One solution would be to make xdm depend on whatever package it is that provides the X server, so that it will find it in the right place. Otherwise some mechanism to find X wherever it is installed is needed. --Phil. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages xdm depends on: ii cpp 4:4.0.3-3 The GNU C preprocessor (cpp) ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.4.72 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.6-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libice6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libpam0g 0.79-3.1 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libselinux1 1.30-1 SELinux shared libraries ii libsm6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System Session Management ii libx11-6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System protocol client li ii libxau6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Authentication library ii libxaw7 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Athena widget set library ii libxdmcp6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Display Manager Control Protocol ii libxext6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxinerama1 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System multi-head display ii libxmu6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System miscellaneous util ii libxpm4 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X pixmap library ii libxt6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii x11-common 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System (X.Org) infrastruc ii xbase-clients 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 miscellaneous X clients xdm recommends no packages. -- debconf information: xdm/stop_running_server_with_children: false xdm/daemon_name: /usr/bin/X11/xdm * shared/default-x-display-manager: xdm -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages xdm depends on: ii cpp 4:4.0.3-3 The GNU C preprocessor (cpp) ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.4.72 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.6-7 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libice6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 Inter-Client Exchange library ii libpam0g 0.79-3.1 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libselinux1 1.30-1 SELinux shared libraries ii libsm6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System Session Management ii libx11-6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System protocol client li ii libxau6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Authentication library ii libxaw7 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Athena widget set library ii libxdmcp6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Display Manager Control Protocol ii libxext6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System miscellaneous exte ii libxinerama1 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System multi-head display ii libxmu6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Window System miscellaneous util ii libxpm4 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X pixmap library ii libxt6 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 X Toolkit Intrinsics ii x11-common 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 X Window System (X.Org) infrastruc ii xbase-clients 6.9.0.dfsg.1-4 miscellaneous X clients xdm recommends no packages. -- debconf information: xdm/stop_running_server_with_children: false xdm/daemon_name: /usr/bin/X11/xdm * shared/default-x-display-manager: xdm
