As it seems I'm the only one with this issue, I assume this comes from the graphical card I'm using, wich is not well managed by nouveau driver: I have other problems with it I should report. Moreover, I tried again to reproduce this issue after your answer, but it appears that it works directly sometimes.
I don't want to continue bothering about this until my graphical card works properly. Feel free to close this bug.
