Bug#806599: installing gnome-tweak-tool breaks keyboard and mouse input
Package: xserver-xorg Version: 1:7.7+12 After installing gnome-tweak-tool and a reboot keyboard and mouse input were broken. Completely unresponsive, even Ctrl-Alt-BS to leave X or Ctrl-Alt-F1 did not work. I had to login via ssh to kill X. On the console (text mode) the keyboard was fine. A power cycle did not help, i.e. the problem is reproducible. I had to deinstall gnome-tweak-tool and its dependencies to make k&m work again. Here is a list of packages I had to remove: Aptitude 0.7.4: log report Sun, Nov 29 2015 15:12:25 +0100 IMPORTANT: this log only lists intended actions; actions which fail due to dpkg problems may not be completed.

Bug#801081: Re: xserver-xorg-video-qxl: QXL video unusable due to performance
Hello, I tried some time ago to install the qxl driver from testing into Jessie but it hang with green screen on boot. I tried a few days ago to make a new vm of Stretch and it still has the problem. To make qxl usable I have to disable the offscreen surfaces as in the conf. It speeds up everything to near perfect. For example the main page of wikipedia can't be browsed in iceweasel, it's too slow. There was also more artifacts in the Stretch vm. Seem fixed by disabling offscreen surfaces. I add that .conf to all my VMs manually now.

Bug#806684: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau: loading nouveau causes screen to become unresponsive
Package: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau Version: 1:1.0.11-1+b1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, Every time I load `nouveau` with `modprobe nouveau` on tty console the screen becomes unresponsive, i.e. the change of tty with Ctrl+Alt+F[N] has no effect and Ctrl+Alt+Del is the only thing I can do.
