I believe the problem comes from an incompatibility between FGLRX version 12-4-1 and xorg 1.12. I've had the same symptoms and solved it by downgrading xorg to 1.11.4-1. Make sure to downgrade the input packages too. Thanks for the feedback. Will try out and feedback the result. Hi Issam, I have downgraded core xorg files to 1.11.4-1 and xorg input files to lower versions matching the 1.11.4-1 release dates. xserver-xorg-core_2%3a1.11.4-1_amd64.deb xserver-common_2%3a1.11.4-1_all.deb xserver-xorg-dev_2%3a1.11.4-1_amd64.deb xorg_1%3a7.6+12_amd64.deb xorg-dev_1%3a7.6+12_all.deb xserver-xorg_1%3a7.6+12_amd64.deb xserver-xorg-input-all_1%3a7.6+12_amd64.deb xserver-xorg-input-evdev_1%3a2.7.0-1_amd64.deb xserver-xorg-input-synaptics_1.5.99.901-1_amd64.deb xserver-xorg-input-wacom_0.12.0-1_amd64.deb This is followed with a install of amd-driver-installer-12-4-x86.x86_64.run .Success: got my my gdm3 in standard mode.

Managed to get gnome 3 back but under fallback mode. Previously was able to be on gnome3 standard mode. (...) If gnome-shell cannot be started it usually means a problem regarding the 3D capabilities of the VGA driver (take a look at your ~/.xession- errors file). And what's the full X log now that you are using Debian stock ATI closed driver? Greetings, -- Camaleón -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
