I don't remember precisely, but in my case I don't think it was caused by the X server. I think that this is a systemd bug where systemd's internal state gets out of sync, and that it can be caused by lots of different things (the first report I saw of it was over a year ago<1>, so probably long before that X server version appeared).<br>
<br>

according to PerryG, it is caused by the pre-release X.Org server in<br>
Fedora 23.<br>

Hello George,<br>
<br>
Adding the list back on CC. I can't tell you anything more than what I<br>
posted to the list and to the Ubuntu bug report: this seems to be a<br>
systemd bug, and executing "systemctl daemon-reexec" seems to work<br>
around it, or at least did when I had the same issue. You probably want<br>
to be talking to Leonard and the systemd people about it though, not us.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
Michael<br>
