Could be hardware, I suppose. Switch to a tty with CTL-ALT-F1. Login as a
user and get the video card data from the command 'lspci'.
While you are out of X ALT-F2 gives you another console to log in as
root and remove lightdm with
apt-get purge lightdm
Because I like to be tidy I'd now return the machine to a more or less
basic configuration
apt-get purge fonts* x11-* dbus xfce4*
followed by
apt-get --purge autoremove
Now
apt-get install xorg fvwm
and, as a user
startx
How does this go? If ok 'apt-get install xfce4' and 'startx'.
The card shows up as:
01:09.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
[AMD/ATI] Rage XL PCI (rev 27)
I'm hesitant to apt-get --purge autoremove since it wants to remove systemd.
If I install xorg and fvwm, it works fine. I can run xclock, it shows
up, and I can move it around.
When I install xfce4, then startx crashes with the segfault at 0xc,
signal 11.
