Package: nvidia-driver Severity: serious Tags: upstream Justification: Policy 1.1
After installing nvidia-driver on a fresh installed debian (or on it's distributions too), the driver could not be loaded causes to boot in low-graphics mode. The main problem is here, that the package overwrites the xserver-xorg-nouveau driver and it's hard to be restored, even purging nvidia-driver and reinstalling/reconfiguring xserver-xorg-nouveau. For me, a complete new Debian installation was the solution. The package was working earlyer on Linux Mint Sarah, but now breaks both system. # Hardware configuration: Dell Precision M4600 with dual-video card: * 1x Nvidia Quadro 2000M * 1x Intel HD 1000 <-- Not identified by even lspci -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.6 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=hu_HU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=hu_HU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system)
