Is there anything consolekit related installed? * ensure that your user account is *not* in group video (I think the first user created upon installation may be added to a few more groups including video ...) * ensure that Debian-gdm is in group video * use nvidia-driver from backports (that should load with root:video 0660) Expected: gdm starts, what about using glx as a user?
