Will need you to try narrow down which of its dependencies got upgraded and which are related. Interestingly it doesn't epend on Boost or GTK+ directly. That was only a wild guess as I have no idea how to find the dependency that breaks wdm. Created attachment 785954 [details]
Photo of login dialog
I made two photos of the login dialog. The first is the login with my username (klaus) already typed in. (Note that only the characters k and a are displayed while l u and s are not displayed. Also note that the whole window is missing.)

This is the second photo showing the password dialog.
I have no immediate ideas but some notes: 1. Debian has some patches (none look strictly related though and I've not compared this to our list): https://sources.debian.org/patches/wdm/1.28-26/ 2. None of the direct deps have been touched recently except for libxcrypt. (In reply to Sam James from comment #1) > Will need you to try narrow down which of its dependencies got upgraded and > which are related. Interestingly it doesn't epend on Boost or GTK+ directly. Using 'qlop' may help to do this. The libxcrypt history of my system is: Tue Nov 2 21:17:20 2021 >>> sys-libs/libxcrypt-4.4.25 Sat Nov 20 13:52:18 2021 >>> sys-libs/libxcrypt-4.4.25-r1 Tue Feb 22 11:20:35 2022 >>> sys-libs/libxcrypt-4.4.27 Thu Jul 21 19:28:44 2022 >>> sys-libs/libxcrypt-4.4.28-r1 So not upgraded around the time when wdm starts to fail. And what is qlop? (In reply to Klaus Ethgen from comment #7) > And what is qlop? It's a tool which shows which packages were installed/uninstalled/etc by parsing /var/log/emerge.log. It can show which emerge actions occurred between dates and such. It is provided by portage-utils. As I update my system regulary, that makes 656 packages in one month only. And 571 on Jun 11. (Ok, mostly perl, haskell and virtuals) Grepping for x11 gives the following: 2022-06-11T13:22:42 >>> x11-base/xorg-proto: 20s 2022-06-11T13:25:51 >>> x11-libs/libdrm: 22s 2022-06-11T13:26:33 >>> x11-misc/compose-tables: 21s 2022-06-11T13:28:18 >>> x11-libs/libX11: 20s 2022-06-11T13:28:38 >>> x11-libs/libXcursor: 20s 2022-06-11T13:33:45 >>> x11-misc/xkeyboard-config: 22s 2022-06-11T13:36:33 >>> x11-apps/iceauth: 22s 2022-06-11T19:58:03 >>> dev-qt/qtx11extras: 20s I found the source of this bug. For some reason, the combination of updates of some X components and changes in kernel was the source for this bug. The solution ist: cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-bugfix.conf Section "Device" Identifier "Intel Graphics" Driver "intel" Option "Accel" "false" EndSection |
