I thought there was already a migration to systemd but appearently it wasn't. User: I log in at the console as regular user. And this regular user invokes 'startx'. $ ps auxw | grep Xorg username 8566 0.0 0.3 245992 25544 tty1 Sl 15:19 0:00 /usr/lib/xorg/Xorg -nolisten tcp :0 vt1 -keeptty -auth /tmp/serverauth.Gi5TPbXzpf Thank you very much.
