Sure. It is attached below. > Does the system respond to ssh or other remote connections? It responds to 'ping' :-) I also tried ssh from putty on a Windows-box, but it kept giving an error and shutting down putty after accepting username and password. Apparently putty writes an error log with the exact error message, but it was nowhere to be found. I gave up searching after 30 mins, and hard-booted the Debian-box instead. > Are you using evdev for any input devices? I use a USB-mouse and keyboard.
