Hi guys,
New problem ! Following an upgrade to Debian Jessie, TDE 14
Desktop, when booting up, everything is fine until the machine
gets to "Loading the Desktop". At this point it seems to hang
for a minute or so before becoming a blank blue screen with
only the mouse cursor present. From here the only thing that
can be done is to select VT1 and login manually, typing
"startx" gets to the Desktop.
I've noticed that only VT1 will get to the Desktop and all the
other terminals except VT8 leave you with a blue background,
whilst VT8 now has just a tiny blinking cursor on a black
screen which has no response to anything.
Where do I need to look in order to put things back to normal ?
Thanks in advance.
I've got display manager problems with TDE 14 on Jessie, after an
upgrade where I stupidly rebooted before running dpkg-reconfigure
tdm-trinity. Problem solving was taking so much time that I am
living with it until I have the opportunity to reinstall.
Mine emergency boots into LXDE, which I uninstalled and which
<aptitude show> and <aptitude search> both say is not there. To
use the American term, I hope correctly, go figure.

That is about as correct a usage as you'll see.
And a problem that I hope is fixed by the official Jessie release.
Is this "dpkg-reconfigure tdm-trinity" the whole fix?
