Package: installation-reports Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
-- Package-specific info: Boot method: CD Image version: "32-bit PC netinst iso" from "Getting Debian" page on www.debian.org on 14-Sep-2013 Date: 15-Sep-2013 Machine: Dell Dimension 8100 (1.2GHz) Partitions: 10GB root partition, 1GB swap partition, 19GB /home partition. Base System Installation Checklist: [O] = OK, [E] = Error (please elaborate below), [ ] = didn't try it Initial boot: [O] Detect network card: [O] Configure network: [O] Detect CD: [O] Load installer modules: [O] Clock/timezone setup: [O] User/password setup: [O] Detect hard drives: [O] Partition hard drives: [O] Install base system: [O] Install tasks: [O] Install boot loader: [O] Overall install: [O] Comments/Problems: The install completed just fine. On the reboot, gdm starts and displays the login screen. After logging in, X flashes a number of partial images and finally displayed a grayish blue screen with a small black rectangle centered need the top of the screen. The mouse works (i.e., the cursor moves) but nothing else works. A ctl-alt-del causes the screen to flicker for a minute or two before the system finally halts. I rebooted the system into the recovery mode, logged in and configured X with the nouveau driver. When X was started, after a minute or so X displayed a perfectly formed graphical error page indicationg something went wrong and provided a button to stop the server. Upon clicking the button X terminated successfully. The server log showed no errors. I then rebooted the system and it behaved as it did upon the initial boot, but the small black box was displayed as a small dark gray box centered near the bottom of the screen. If the installer cannot configure the desktop correctly, my suggestion is for the installer to install the desktop packages but not setup gdm as part of the system startup. Just clearly instruct the user to configure the desktop after the basic install is complete and point the user to the documentation for doing so. This machine ran the previously version of Debian, with X and Gnome, with no problems. At this point I do not have a usable desktop. I certainly can remove gdm from the startup and use the system as a text-interface-only system (this is not my main machine). Should I report the X problems to a Debian maintainer or Xorg? -- Please make sure that the hardware-summary log file, and any other installation logs that you think would be useful are attached to this report.
