[Bug 77891] Re: Kcontrol doesn't open the system services module

[trumpeteersman]

I also had this problem and I also have a custom /etc/issue file.  What
is strange is that I have had the custom /etc/issue file for a while now
and this problem started last night after I ran "e2fsck -fD" on my HDDs.
Another tweak that I did that might have caused this problem is I added
"clocksource=hpet" to my kernel boot(much faster now).

The solution that Jay Smith proposed worked for me.  I did not do it
exactly though. I instead copied the example from the Gentoo test two
lines below.  I just added "DISTRO = "Debian"; return
DebianServiceContext()" at the top of the "def getServiceContext():"
function.  It gets to the DISTRO=Debian part and exits the function
without running the rest.  To revert back to the original, just comment
out that line.

 243 def getServiceContext():
 244     global DISTRO
 245     # Detect if we are running on Debian, Mandrake or what.
 246     DISTRO = "Debian"; return DebianServiceContext()     ##This is the line I added.
 247     # Uncomment here to test Gentoo compatibility.
 248     #DISTRO = "Gentoo"; return GentooServiceContext()
 249
 250     # Check for Debian - is this the 'good' way?
 251     etc_issue = '/etc/issue'
