Package: general
Severity: critical
Dear Maintainer,
I installed Debian on a i5 750 (so no integrated graphics), GTX 590, Intel SSD
system. The installation runned fine. However, after booting with GRUB in
"normal mode", the system freezes after log in (or before if I run the mouse
over the log in boxes, over GNOME classic etc.), i.e. stops doing anything.
While I can still move my mouse's cursor around on the screen without beeing
able to interact with anything, the keyboard does not do anything. I have USB
mouse and keyboard, and VGA screen. There is no sound coming out.
Thinking this was a graphical problem, I ran some research on how to install
nvidia drivers and tried some command lines : it couldn't find the packages,
neither the "deb" command. When trying to continue looking at Xorg config, the
directory wasn't found (i.e. can't "cd" in it) though it was displayed with
"dir" command.
It was really confusing, and my problem still isn't solved. I have tried
installing Debian with no-inst, live cd, DVD and expert DVD with KDE
installations, with the same outcome. Ubuntu's live cd does not even load,
however.
Windows 7 x64 runs fine on the same SSD drive. My system is not overclocked and
all BIOS settings were brought back to default without effect.
I would have expected Debian to boot right out of the box, as it did in Live
CD, but well :'(. I am not good at all with Linux distributions as it is my
first encounter with those, but I allowed myself to put "critical".
