Dear Andreas, installing systemd-shim helped fine.
I'd like to note that GDM3 in Debian/testing now takes a great time to load and that the console output is not shown right when GDM3 leaves X mode. Additionally; I've read on http://www.phoronix.com/ that Debian now possibly likes to switch to systemd. Is it recommended now to switch to systemd and install systemd-sysv? Thank you very much.
