[EN] solved: xserver does not start after d-u
« on: 2014/11/01, 11:08:21 »
After d-u this morning xserver does not start, not from normal login and not from console with startx command.

Had to use apt-get -f install two times to complete the d-u.

System: amd64, kde, lightdm, intel core i5, hd3000 graphic.

Last d-u was a while ago, it's my laptop and I only update it from time to time.

Messages from journalctl -b -p err:
Quote
tpm-tis 00:05: A TPM error (6) occured attempting to read a pcr value
kvm: disabled by bios

Errors in /var/log/Xorg.0.log:

Quote
Failed to load module "modesetting" (module does not exist)

Ich habe ein ähnliches Notebook gerade upgedated und es startet normal. Scheint also erstmal ein individuelles Problem zu sein. vielleicht hilft Dir

journalctl -xb | grep -i failed weiter.

Does the filesystem have free space?

Could it be they same problem I had when uuid on your my (and devils) hard disks was changed by some unknown reason, check if the uuid:s are correct in fstab.

@devil:
besides "disabling ASPM" and "Sap driver initialization failed" I have a message "failed to get i915 symbols, graphics turbo disabled", so it's pointing to the intel driver. Will try to download and reinstall it, which is a little difficult because my network is causing problems also. Will have to dig in deeper.

@dibl: no problem with freespace, 4,9 GB free.

@ vilde: no problem with uuids

@mimir: no problem with lightdm so far

@ mods: as it seems to be an indiviual problem maybe someone likes to move it to software?

Thanks and greets

EDIT: Strange, cant get vesa to work either, using it with a xorg.conf  lightdm failes...
