After a wine install/uninstall audio is broken and MDM fails as a boot up service, but still works via sudo. How should I trouble shoot?
Last night I installed Wine, installed then removed mono-complete (and it's dependencies) and then ran apptitude update which when finished made my system seem unstable so I rebooted.
Upon reboot, the system hangs on the LM logo. F2 shows that starting MDM failed. So I tried
apt-get uninstall MDM
apt-get intstall MDM
and rebooted, this didn't help so I tried
dpkg-reconfigure -a
Which also didn't help, however, if I open up another TTY I can use
sudo MDM
and MDM starts fine.
It seems quite similar to these bugs:
Linux Mint fails to start X automatically after update, but X still works http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=206&t=141808
but I don't have infinality installed, nor can I detect any issues with mdm.conf
I'm not sure if this is related (and if not I'll start a new question), but upon login I noticed I no longer had sound. Clicking the sound system tray icon, I noticed that the mixer is now pointed to "Dumy Output". I tried to go to sound settings to reconfigure this, but there are no detected sound cards to choose.
Please let me know if any log files would be helpful.
Any and all help is appreciated.
