Is this is an attempted upgrade to Bookworm from MX21 bullseye? If yes, did you follow Adrian's advice for in-place upgrade in our MX blog? Because I note your MX repo is still set to Bullseye.

If no, when did you change the Debian repos and why?

[brad]

where is Adrian's advice?

[brad]

I installed the keyring, now upgrade works thanks! I will see X then.

[Eadwine Rose]

Remember we are a team, it's not just Adrian. We all have lives besides this forum. Thanks.

I was referring to this, actually:

[Eadwine Rose]

I was referring to his post #3. Where is Adrian?

[brad]

X still does not start after boot

[Stevo]

First, you are not running MX 21, you have a FrankenMX with a Debian 11 kernel and Debian 12 repositories--who knows what else.

Second, you must explain how this happened, so you can prevent a repetition. This just didn't happen by itself, since the MX team has default settings that prevents it. A user has to go into configuration files and change things by hand to end up with FrankenMX.

[brad]

I replaced in /etc/apt/sources.list.d bullseye with bookworm, updated, upgraded
