(EE) parse_vt_settings: Cannot open /dev/tty0 (No such file or directory)

[peepo]

I installed standard ubuntu which runs startkde as expected on Asus C200M tx
however when I added chroot sid & run alone:
sudo startkde -n debian
Fatal server error:
(EE) parse_vt_settings: Cannot open /dev/tty0 (No such file or directory)

sudo startkde -n xenial
wfm

these are vanilla installs: sudo sh ~/Downloads/crouton -r sid -t kde -n debian
I have only a couple weeks experience with crouton
found similar issues, but felt they are not similar enough....

same here with debian stretch and gnome

[m0nk3d0]

MIght as well chime in, any debian or kail-rolling I try gives the same error as above.

[TheCookieHero]

Same problem on xfce.

I am also stuck here. I have experimented with startxiwi -b xterm, xorg logs, modifying config files to allow any users, even removing a write-protect screw for chromium OS. The only success I have had is in using unity desktop. No luck with Debian, kali-rolling,or gnome. What is the common thread here? Are we just missing something? I am using a Asus Chromebook 301S and have applied -t audio,x11,extension,keyboard,gtk-extra,core,xfce,xfce-desktop,xiwi... and still no luck

This challenges me on a Lenovo Yoga 11e Chromebook. The thing is I have a /dev/tty file, just no tty0. Does this mean I should try swapping out my tty file, or modify xinitrc to call for the current tty?

found solution from :#3242

I had this problem after upgrading a chroot (kali-rolling, xiwi, xfce). Logged into the chroot using enter-chroot, ran 'sudo apt remove xserver-xorg-legacy', and this seems to have fixed it. Thanks!

I'm using debian9(stretch) with xfce, had the same issue. Tried Jernic's solution and it works.

[rogue417]

This solution worked for me. Many thanks!

Dup of #2875, please track there.

If removing the xserver-xorg-legacy package doesn't work, add the x11 target to your chroot.

If removing the xserver-xorg-legacy package doesn't work, add the x11 target to your chroot.

what the meaning of add the x11 target to your chroot.

[CroutonGeek]

If removing the xserver-xorg-legacy package doesn't work, add the x11 target to your chroot.

what the meaning of add the x11 target to your chroot.

Suppose you installed -r xenial -t whatever. So you can't get /dev/tty0 to show up:

sudo sh ~/Downloads/crouton -r xenial -t x11 -u

In other words, update your release with the x11 target. To see a list of targets:

sudo sh ~/Downloads/crouton -t list

I hope this helps! ~James
