    Thanks for the incredibly fast answer to my previous question!

    I will go with an other one:

    I did:
    su -
    dpkg-reconfigure x11-common
    dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg-legacy
    choosed to allow all to start xserver

    then, I tried first as a normal user, then as root (because you said root was allowed to lspci devices, not normal users):

    startx
    results in:
    xinit: unable to connect to X server: connection refused

    grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log show that:

    failed to load fbdevhw (invalid module, 0)
    VESA(0) Cannot read int vect


    Was it expected?

    No, that needs to be investigated.

    No, that needs to be investigated.

    Just to be clear: that means actually looking at the source code, which
    can easily found by using codesearch:

    https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=Cannot+read+int+vect&hl=en

    and then put prints etc. to get back to where things start going wrong.

    This is now fixed with libpciaccess0 version 0.16-3+hurd.4, which will
    appear on debian-ports' unreleased within about 6h.
