It could be that, since I don't have systemd, nor systemd-shim
installed (I just checked again).

I had to install xserver-xorg-legacy, just as Harald Dunkel suggested.

Should't apt-get have warned me that there were unmet dependencies?

Wasn't systemd just an init?

Thanks to all of you!

Can't startx as normal user

[Rodrigo S. Cañibano]

Hi!

Today I made a dist-upgrade and everything worked fine until I rebooted.

No only root can run startx. If a user tries the following error appears:

"(EE) AddScreen/ScreenInit failed for driver 0"

(I will attach the full log).

Does anyone have any idea what might be the source of this problem?

Thanks and sorry for the bad English!

Re: Another less woe

[Rodrigo S. Cañibano]

With less 456,  on jessie/sid, I have no problems. My cpu is an amd c50.

What arch are you using?


2013/5/13 Mike Castle dalgoda+deb...@gmail.com

 Darn.

 It happened to me on three different machines.  Though they're all the
 same arch.

Man Hates Less

[Rodrigo S. Cañibano]

Last night I did a dist-upgrade of my wheezy debian, today I woke up
without less. I tried to install it via apt-get install less but it
removes both man-db and debhelper.

Does anyone know why is that? I am alone here?

Should I panic?

Thank  a lot!

 Was it your intention to upgrade from Wheezy to Jessie?  If not, then
 I'm guessing that you are using testing rather than wheezy in
 /etc/apt/sources.list.  This is a perfect example of why you should
 always use a release code name, not a status, in /etc/apt/sources.list.
 Wheezy is no longer the testing release.  It is now the stable release.
 Jessie is the new testing release.  I intentionally did an upgrade from
 Wheezy to Jessie, but when I saw that aptitude full-upgrade intended
 to delete less, I aborted it and did an aptitude safe-upgrade instead.
 You obviously gave it permission to delete less.  You should pay closer
 attention to what you give it permission to do.  Given that you did,
 your options are limited.  Wait for less to be upgraded to a new release
 that is compatible with man-db, if possible.

You are right! I left a testing on my source list.

Now I have to pay for my mistakes.

Thanks everyone for your quick answers.
