Mine is: ### BEGIN DEBCONF SECTION # Do not edit within this region if you want your changes to be preserved by # debconf. Instead, make changes after the "### END DEBCONF SECTION" line. allowed_users=console nice_value=-10 ### END DEBCONF SECTION Maybe if you create Xwrapper.config with that content it will work.
