Package: xorg

I upgraded a system from jessie to stretch. It is a kiosk system without a 
window 
manager that starts one single application directly via startx. The dedicated 
user could 
not start the session after the upgrade.

With Debian jessie, there were no problems.

I got these errors:
Fatal server error:(EE) xf86OpenConsole: Cannot open virtual console 1 
(Permission 
denied)(EE)(EE)Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support         at 
http://wiki.x.org[1]


The solution was to issue this command:
chmod ug+s /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg

I found it in a related Ubuntu bug report:
