Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse
X refuses to start in Jaunty on a vmware guest if xserver-xorg-input- vmmouse (which comes with open-vm-toolbox) is installed. Just leaves me with a black screen. Messages in /var/log/gdm/:0.log include: /usr/bin/X: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input//vmmouse_drv.so: undefined symbol: xf86OSMouseInit waiting for X server to begin accepting connections giving up. xinit: Connection reset by peer (errno 104): unable to connect to X server xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error. 3799 2933 Uninstalling xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse works around the problem, but this removes all vmware-tools too. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- X does not start in VMWare with xserver-xorg-input-vmmouse installed https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/316705 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
