I have got a graphics adapter that is somehow integrated on the motherboard. [1] On this hardware I can use KDE but no GNOME. When installing GNOME I get the error message 'Oh no! Something has gone wrong. A problem has occurred and the system can't recover. Please contact a system administrator'. Is there a known problem with GNOME and my graphics adapter?
Is this with Debian 8 Jessie or Debian 7 Wheezy?
[1]
'lspci' shows in particular 'Intel Corporation HD Graphics 510'. 'dmidecode --type baseboard' shows in particular 'Manufacturer: FUJITSU' and 'Product Name: D3400-B1'.
NAICT from Googling, Jessie's 3.16 kernel is too old to fully support Skylake (August 2105 release) CPU features required by Gnome, so you need a kernel newer than 4.1 (June 2015), and/or Stretch (currently on 4.7).
