[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#669949: sysvinit: Break X11: no more mouse and keyboard

[Matteo Settenvini]

I can confirm this bug, and I did not touch /etc/default/tmpfs.

I am also experiencing other bugs that might be related to the
initscripts upgrade, for example systemd has stopped working and I had
to go back using sysvinit. With systemd, /run/lock was not created, as
well as /run/dbus (dbus not starting, but working if creating /run/dbus
and launching the daemon manually from the cmdline after booting in
single-user mode). 

Does dbus / systemd require something special from /dev? Can it be
related to problems in /run missing some directories and files?

I don't have hal installed, nor any entry in fstab besides the normal
physical hard-disk partitions + proc.

To me, it looks as if something strange was changed early in the boot
process, but there's nothing relevant in the logfiles.

Cheers,
