Package: xserver-xfree86 Version: 4.3.0-5 Severity: normal Tags: sid After upgrading XFree86 from 4.2 to 4.3.0-5, I was unable to start X11; it exited with the following error: "could not open default font 'cursor'". A quick google and I found someone who had solved this problem by reinstalling artwiz-cursor. I didn't have that installed already, but installing it fixed my problem (and I got a cool cursor). I imagine I could have used a different cursor package. Is this a missing dependency?
