Dear Maintainer,
-- System Information:
Debian Release: stretch/sid
APT prefers testing
APT policy: (500, 'testing')
Architecture: i386 (i686)
Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-686-pae (SMP w/2 CPU cores)
Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8)
Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash
Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
I track 'testing' and upgrade every few days, almost always without any
issues. However a couple of weeks ago the upgrade caused my Xorg to
fail with the above message. Looking at Xorg.0.log, comparing a good
version (running a backup) with the failed upgrade, the first sign of
trouble is the message: "failed to set drm version".
lspci reports my card:
NVIDIA Corporation GF119 [GeForce GT 610] (rev a1)
I use the nouveau driver. I have an Xorg.conf, but it works fine prior
to the upgrade. Removing Xorg.conf made no difference (I need it to get
my dual monitors working). I tried reinstalling every package that has
'drm' in its name with no change. If it is relevant, recent efforts at
upgrades on the broken install (I have expected that this bug would fix
itself after a few subsequent upgrades) report something to the effect
that the signature of the upgrade has not been updated--or something
like that.
