So I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. I can't use nouveau, because it makes the whole kernel crash, I can't use the proprietary one because it makes X crash (eventhough the driver itself is not to blame, remember: Debian Wheezy worked for years flawlessly) and I can't use Vesa, because that will make the machine unusable.
Oh wait, if I can reproduce this crash with the vesa driver, then you would support that, right? How can I switch to that? Just to try it out? Or do I have to downgrade to Debian Wheezy again, so I can use my laptop for work? Right now it is not really nice, it is very instable... Is there a way maybe to use the Xserver from Testing? Through backports? or are the dependencies too many? I should have probably tested this before, but Debian has always been such a gurantee for stability, and staying on the stable branch has never caused any instabilities so far.
