Bug#747292: gdm3: Unable to login after last upgrade (version 3.8.4-7): fails to start a GNOME session

[Benjamin Menant]

Well, I am not sure… It’s more or less a default Jessie installation.
I hope those following data will help. Please let me know.


The PID #1 is /sbin/init (which is not a symlink)

# cat /proc/cmdline
\boot\vmlinuz-3.14-1-amd64 ro root=UUID=***
initrd=boot\initrd.img-3.14-1-amd64

# aptitude show systemd-sysv
Paquet : systemd-sysv
État: non installé
[…]

# aptitude show systemd
Paquet : systemd
État: installé
Automatiquement installé: oui
Version : 204-10
[…]


Then, loginctl tells me that:

# longinctl session-status 2
