I just installed a cisco vpn. And after installing some required libraries I got the option to get rid of “unused” libraries. So I did ‘sudo apt autoremove’ as suggested. After I rebooted I no longer have a either x11 or wayland in the drop down menu. I can no longer login via the GUI.

Running latest Debian.

Where did I go wrong? Any immediate help appreciated 🙏

Edit: The Cisco VPN required me to download libkit2gtk-4.0-dev if that has anything to do with it?

Edit2: Thanks for all the tips and help. Won’t happen again 😅

    For when I downloaded Debian? I just went to their homepage and got the latest bookworm.

          What Desktop Enviroment did you install?

          Try: sudo apt install tasksel && sudo tasksel

            I’m a KDE kinda guy. Also for some reason not allowed to connect to WiFi anymore(via Terminal) … Been troubleshooting this for too long now. Just gonna get OpenSuse on this machine instead me thinks.

                Yeah that’s something I’ll setup this time! ✨

                Is Timeshift equally relevant on OpenSuse Tumbleweed? Or is it Snapper I should use instead?
