Source: nvidia-graphics-drivers Version: 340.65 Severity: important After trying to install the nVidia binary driver (340.65) from the Debian repositories (or even the installable package from the nVidia web site). The graphics card is nVidia NVS 5200M.
uname -a: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt2-1 (2014-12-08) x86_64 GNU/Linux Install goes OK - apt-get install logs: http://pastebin.com/86zZPbQn Install suggests reboot to enable the driver. I ran 'nvidia-xconfig' just before so I have a good xorg.conf. NOTE that even deleting the xorg.conf will not startx. The nvidia-xconfig generated xorg.conf: http://pastebin.com/jgnXTggt (seems totally fine) After reboot Xorg won't start. Error in Xorg.log is: "[6.102] (EE) no screens found(EE)" Full Xorg.0.log: http://pastebin.com/3kVwLxAZ /var/log/nvidia-installer.log: http://pastebin.com/aWyi9DSv (seems totally fine) System will default to the nouveau driver and I have graphics but from the Intel HD graphics. I cannot run the lspci | grep -i vga: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 3rd Gen Core processor Graphics Controller (rev 09) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF108GLM [NVS 5200M] (rev a1) (1) NOTE that I seem to have EXACTLY THE SAME ISSUE with the latest nvidia binary on Wheezy! Got an update a while back and applied it. Blank screen afterwards & the same error in Xorg.0.log (I have two separate installs running on the same machine) (2) NOTE that other people seem to have a similar problem but after updating from wheezy too: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=735424 (3) NOTE that the binary from nvidia's web site causes the same problem.
