Dear TAILS support,

I successfully installed TAILS several times, from another USB stick in Windows 
and also straight from Debian 8, but with the final usb stick (well, it is in 
fact an SD card that I can plug directly into my laptop, but that shouldn't 
matter) I always get the following error message while booting in normal mode:

[ 4.197020] nouveau ![ DEVICE][0000:01:00.0] unknown Kepler chipset
[ 4.197113] nouveau ![ DEVICE][0000:01:00.0] unknown chipset, 0xb06190b1
[ 4.197200] nouveau ![ DRM][0000:01:00.0] falied to create 0x80000080, -22
error: unexpectedly disconnected from boot status demon

After that, everything is initialized successfully, (in failsafe mode I don't 
even get these errors), and then Tails boots to the desktop in a crippling 
640x480 resolution, and with no wi-fi (wired connection works). I can't even 
change the resolution with xandr, since for the system it seems that the 
minimal and the maximal resolution is 640x480.

My computer is a Lenovo Yoga with an Intel i5 6200U (integrated graphics: Intel 
HD Graphics 6200U) and a GeForce 920M. The native resolution is 1920x1080. The 
network adapter is an Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3165.

These results don't change neither in normal nor in failsafe mode, and using 
the boot option vga=normal nomodeset doesn't do
anything either. I installed Debian Jessie to test whether these problems are 
inherent in Debian itself, and the wi-fi is still nonexistent there, however 
the full HD resolution was supported, so this must be something with TAILS. I 
can live without the wi-fi, but this low resolution makes the system virtually 
useless. How could I fix this?

Looking forward to your suggestions,
Jason Brown
