Could you please provide the contents of ~/.xession-errors after the error has occurred? If there are any components of MATE crashing, it should show up in that log file. Also, can you check your syslog or dmesg for any crash messages? > 500 testing ftp.deb-multimedia.org Please be aware that you are mixing in packages from an external source and you are therefore creating a so-called FrankenDebian [1]. Debian Multimedia is not an official Debian repository and should only ever add it with down- graded priority (less than 500). Otherwise APT will randomly pull in packages from that source.
