I just installed Stretch and can confirm that this works.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that. The system is on Debian 8.

In that case the kernel I am using is just too old. Thank you.

Is this with Debian 8 Jessie or Debian 7 Wheezy?

NAICT from Googling, Jessie's 3.16 kernel is too old to fully support Skylake 
(August 2105 release) CPU features required by Gnome, so you need a kernel 
newer than 4.1 (June 2015), and/or Stretch (currently on 4.7).

Dear All

I have got a graphics adapter that is somehow integrated on the
motherboard. [1] On this hardware I can use KDE but no GNOME. When
installing GNOME I get the error message 'Oh no! Something has gone wrong.
A problem has occurred and the system can't recover. Please contact a
system administrator'. Is there a known problem with GNOME and my graphics
adapter?

Sam
