Okay, here is one start. A boot message: udevd-work[905] kernel provided name 'uinput' and NAME='input/uinput' disagree. Please use SYMLINK+= or change kernel to provide proper name. This looks like a warning, not a failure. Another piece of the puzzle... I just did a dist-upgrade. (And another brokenness, suspend works once, second time is black screen (no backlight.) I should have known better not to dist-upgrade a well functioning system.)
