This patch was merged upstream. See https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/xserver/merge_requests/150 Would be great if this patch could be applied for buster. This would mean I could add the logind to systemd's postinst in buster+1. If we don't get this Xorg fix into buster, we'd have to wait another full release cycle. Julien, in case you are busy, I could offer to NMU. WDYT? Regards, Michael
