I also had this problem and I also have a custom /etc/issue file. What is strange is that I have had the custom /etc/issue file for a while now and this problem started last night after I ran "e2fsck -fD" on my HDDs. Another tweak that I did that might have caused this problem is I added "clocksource=hpet" to my kernel boot(much faster now).
The solution that Jay Smith proposed worked for me. I did not do it exactly though. I instead copied the example from the Gentoo test two lines below. I just added "DISTRO = "Debian"; return DebianServiceContext()" at the top of the "def getServiceContext():" function. It gets to the DISTRO=Debian part and exits the function without running the rest. To revert back to the original, just comment out that line. 243 def getServiceContext(): 244 global DISTRO 245 # Detect if we are running on Debian, Mandrake or what. 246 DISTRO = "Debian"; return DebianServiceContext() ##This is the line I added. 247 # Uncomment here to test Gentoo compatibility. 248 #DISTRO = "Gentoo"; return GentooServiceContext() 249 250 # Check for Debian - is this the 'good' way? 251 etc_issue = '/etc/issue' -- Kcontrol doesn't open the system services module https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/77891 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kdebase in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
