I did, but it failed as there is nothing installed as gdm no longer
exists in jessie apparently, just gdm3

that seems to have worked, at least no errors were printed (there was
no output from reconfiguring gdm3)

Did you try to dpkg-reconfigure gdm?

You might try to force the configuration by reconfiguring another login-manager 
i.e. kdm. Just do dpkg-reconfigure kdm, then dpkg-reconfigure gdm.

Hope this helps!

Merry christmas

Not sure what the difference is (sorry).
When the system starts I get multiple messages along the lines of "Gnome
Display Manager [FAILED]".
startx gives me what looks like a gnome environment, minus the
lockscreen and whatnot.


It is gdm that fails to start.  Try:

# dpkg-reconfigure gdm


gdm doesn't exist any more in Debian Jessie. It is now called gdm3


Report any error messages verbatim if possible.

gdm is the Gnome Display Manager. This is the screen where you can choose
the user and enter your password. This application is also responsible
for the lockscreen, suspend and so on.

KDE has is own display manager (KDM) so I think when you installed KDE
KDM has messed up something.

just to be sure:

apt-get update
apt-get purge kdm
apt-get install --reinstall gdm3
dpkg-reconfigure gdm3

success,

Unlikely.  I think most everyone opposed to virusd has fled this list.  I keep 
reading it because I am a bit bored . . .

It is not very clear to me.
You installed KDE, you did not like it and purged Gnome ?

The simpliest way to remove something you do not want is something like:

- What is the output of 
journalctl -xn
dpkg --audit

- And what is your Debian version ?
ls /etc/*rel*
cat /etc/
cat /etc/os-release
apt-cache policy
apt-cache policy gnome

Recent discussion (on the Devuan list) mentioned dbus requires a reboot to 
restart. Perhaps startx also needs a reboot?  Welcome to the world of systemd - 
determined to  complicate your computing life.  Note that Gnome is terminally 
infected with the systemd plague.

gnome wont start

2014-12-22 Thread Joris Bolsens
Hello all,
I recently ran into a problem with Gnome.
It fails to start at all. I am able to get a working ui by using the
startx command, and it seems like it is a gnomish environment (windows
key brings up the Activities selected or what have you)

Gnome used to work fine, however I installed KDE to try it, decided i
dint like it, and purged it.

Everything on google seems to recommend simply removing Gnome and using
tasksel to reinstall Gnome from scratch, however this does not resolve
my issue.

some relevant outputs:
--
$ sudo service gdm restart
Warning: Unit file of gdm.service changed on disk, 'systemctl
daemon-reload' recommended.
Job for gdm.service failed. See 'systemctl status gdm.service' and
'journalctl -xn' for details.
