http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1121731 Bug ID: 1121731 Summary: There is no link /var/lib/X11/X to the correct X server binary Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 15.1 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org Assignee: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Reporter: mrmazda@earthlink.net QA Contact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- Initial summary: There is no link /var/lib/X11/X to the correct X server binary. To reproduce: 1-online upgrade (zypper dup) from 15.0 to 15.1alpha 2-boot multi-user.target 3-login on any vtty 4-startx Actual observations: 1-error message: "There is no link /var/lib/X11/X to the correct X server binary." 2-/var/lib/X11/X does not exist 3-/var/lib/X11/ does not exist 4-Xorg session does not start Expected behavior 1-Xorg starts normally Comments/Questions: 1-graphical.target works as expected 2-startx works as expected following manual creation of symlink /var/lib/X11/X 3-startx continues to work as always in Debian Buster & Fedora Rawhide, apparently still "supported" and extensively used. Isn't it a standard component of upstream Xorg? 4-Why does startx want /var/lib/X11/X (which exists on neither Buster nor Rawhide) rather than existing /usr/bin/X or /usr/bin/X11/X? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

Unsetting it broke user systemd services that use D-Bus (e.g. PulseAudio), because X uses another D-Bus session (boo#1108549) ------------------------------------------------------------------- Wed Jul 11 11:16:48 UTC 2018 - fcrozat@suse.com - Do not check /var/lib/X11/X anymore, it is obsolete (FATE#325524). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
