@vastone- you trying to log into fluxbox or cwm.
On my recent updates, something is broken.in lightdm. I don't get the host name or clock in the lightdm bar. Everything else is there and I can log in.
Your fatal.errors look to be related to Xorg- which just went through a major upgrade.
Do you have xinit installed? You can try disabling lightdm service and see if you can log in with startx.
Not so trivial for me and the V-Box build environment I use for VSIDO
I did a normal update for the x32 build environment and I can no longer boot to the machine.
Here is the complete xsession-errors (http://hastebin.com/zuzakokogo.vbs)
systemctl status shows lightdm as the only failure... I get right to the point of lightdm environment to begin and I am stalled at a blinking cursor... /var/logs is not showing me anything and swapping out all of the lightdm conf files have led to nothing as well..
I loaded xdm and never saw X start either so it is confusing (read FRUSTRATING) that it is not obvious as to whter or not it is even a lightdm issue (as opposed to Xorg) ...
I have been at it all day and am tired so any and all feedback and guidance will be rewarded
@RatMan...
FluxBox only, always, ever... no time anymore to mess with others :-[
It is Xorg broken, specifically the removal of v-box mods or kernel or X packages. I am retracing it all now and will find what is gone or missing
Also... xinit/startx shows Fatal Server Error (EE) no screens found (EE) and I am not sure it is missing packages from a xserver update
I updated the x64 that did not remove anything and have the same issue
X is just broken in virtualbox right now
The missing component is xserver-xorg-video-modesetting (https://packages.debian.org/sid/xserver-xorg-video-modesetting) which depends on xorg-video-abi-19 which is a Virtual Package NOW missing from xserver-xorg-core
Once this is resolved I should be able to build again
DAFUQ you doing to us all debian?
Posting this in hopes of some kind of assist... I am tired of trying and getting massive headaches trying to figure this one out

@VastOne - sorry to hear about your problems. Is there are useful information in /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log ? Ozi
This might have something to do with the removal of;
xserver-xorg-video-modesetting
during the latest updates over the last few days...
Can it be apt-pinned to keep it for the time being, or would that not work at all? Total guess work here on my part...
@vastone -
what is the output of:
systemctl --state=failed
and what is module overlay related to; looks like fuse is causing some issues.
Also, the recent xorg update mayhem was removing a bunch of files - mostly video drivers. This is all in vm correct? Do you need/have the drivers for your vmware installed:
these drivers -
xserver-xorg-video-vmware
xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
xserver-xorg-video-fbdev
xserver-xorg-video-vesa
were all candidates for un-installation - amongst others. Maybe you had one slip through the cracks.

Output of systemctl --state=failed
UNIT LOAD ACTIVE SUB DESCRIPTION

LOAD = Reflects whether the unit definition was properly loaded.
ACTIVE = The high-level unit activation state, i.e. generalization of SUB.
SUB = The low-level unit activation state, values depend on unit type.
1 loaded units listed. Pass --all to see loaded but inactive units, too.
To show all installed unit files use 'systemctl list-unit-files'.If I completely remove lightdm and go with another (mdm) it fails also... It is an X issue is seems even though it is not reporting that way from systemctl
These were all that were updated and/or not included in the original Xorg updates that has been checked and restored

@vastone -
search this error which is in your logs -
(EE) no screens found(EE)
There are some links for this occurring in ubuntu, centos, and arch after an xorg upgrade. Looks like a couple in VM's. Solution usually involves re-installing the video driver, or reconfiguring xorg.conf
RatMan, I have seen and tried them all .. or at least all except the one that corrects this issue
It seems to have several layers... I am tempted to load the latest Beta 5 of V-Box
Another solution I have is to shitcan the V-Box build environment and install the fsa's of March backups on metal and go forward from there
Ultimately I will get new ISO's with the 4.0 kernel out

fsa's = FSARCHIVER! = solution! Bet you get it solved in less than 24 hours!!! I trust everything to fsa's. Your suggestion to use fsarchiver a few years back has always stuck with me! (and never failed once!)
@vastone - this looks like the point of failure

RatMan, I have seen and tried them all .. or at least all except the one that corrects this issue
It seems to have several layers... I am tempted to load the latest Beta 5 of V-Box
Another solution I have is to shitcan the V-Box build environment and install the fsa's of March backups on metal and go forward from there
Ultimately I will get new ISO's with the 4.0 kernel out
I would agree with this as well.
I'm using VB as my build enviroment. Currently no problems. But I'm building with jessie. Build on metal if that's possible.
I'm using virtualbox from oracle
VBoxManage -v
4.3.26r98988
I use VB on a sid host and my build environment is debian jessie guest
^ Thanks for that Ozi... I am also using the same oracle V-Box version
I think I have all I need to send in a bug report on this, it definitely is failing in this environment of mine.. all SID
@vastone - no worries. Lightdm definitely won't start though with vesa errors, I've been down in the logs looking for lightdm error myself very recently. But from you log xorg doesn't look happy either.
no v-box for me with the new ISO's. Boots to a black screen with a white cursor top left. Hangs there...
I am able to get to tty1-6 and login to the cli using 'vsido' for un and 'live' for pw...
trying to manually start x or lightdm results in the black screen with a white cursor top left.

fsa's = FSARCHIVER! = solution! Bet you get it solved in less than 24 hours!!! I trust everything to fsa's. Your suggestion to use fsarchiver a few years back has always stuck with me! (and never failed once!)
It was less than 24, good call jedi!
I had a hiccup with the x32 where sysvinit-core was the issue... for whatever reasons, the live-config and live-boot and user-setup NEED sysvinit-core to work correctly
It would appear to me that the live folks at debian are not fans of systemd .. if that is true, that would suck to have that kind of division
lsmod shows no nouveau loaded...
modprobe nouveau adds them but on reboot, they are not sticking...
I will keep you posted on this as I solve it
Created a bug report for this issue on the V-Box site (https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=68358)
This is so called solved by the need to install Guest Additions per partition... Over 3 years of using V-Box and VSIDO builds, I never ever had to do that in the past
More details on the bug report (https://forums.virtualbox.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=68358#p324748)
This resolved itself ultimately with updates from the SID channel... I do not know precisely what package caused this and/or what fixed it, and that frustrates the hell out of me
Things are back as original, no need for Guest Additions and everything is building as they should
For anyone who needs to remove Guest Additions on a VSIDO installation do this:
To uninstall the Guest Additions do this
cd /opt/<VirtualBoxAdditions-x.x.xx>/
sudo ./uninstall.sh
QuoteThings are back as original, no need for Guest Additions and everything is building as they should
Hmmm... How to revert back to a non guest-additions iso CD state? One thing it's happening to me lately when installing GA from the iso image, not only in Vsido VMs, is that I need to boot twice in a row, or at least re-login in for everything to dispay properly. Otherwise resolution seems to be borked somehow. Everything gets huge.
Ahh... I have gotten lazy... I usually post all of the changes so that anyone can move to the same levels
To uninstall the Guest Additions do this
cd /opt/<VirtualBoxAdditions-x.x.xx>/
sudo ./uninstall.sh
My apologies Snap and thanks for the reminder
Great. Thanks.
Nice task for a warm day evening (102 ºF around here...)
PS; i didn't remembered it has an uninstaller... ::)
