I have just installed Debian Stable with gnome 3 on my msi laptop MSI GS 60 2PC-247XFR, when I shut down or quit session the system just freezes, here is a quote from my syslog file:

I don't understand very much from this message, would someone have an idea what the problem is ?

EDIT: I have waited I while after the freeze instead of forcing to shut down, this message appeared: enter image description here Then it shutted down.. I could'nt find any trace of this message on my logs neither in kern.log or syslog

  • 3.16.0.4 amd 64, I totally messed up my system now I was installing nvidia driver, during the installation my system just freezed so I shutdown, and restart, I continued tutorial on the wiki doing the xorg config file thing etc ... I restarted it didn't boot .. So I boot in recovery mode I remove xorg config file, now It boots but I have error "Oh something wrong out log out etc.."

  • Oh no, I did the same thing - I mean the Nvidia drivers. I must have it re-installed then. Sep 26, 2015 at 17:42
  • You mean you reinstalled debian ? Or the driver ?

I have fixed the problem by changing "Primary Display" from nvidia to intel in my BIOS, no more freeze I also noticed that "lspci -nn | grep VGA" does not detect my gtx860m neither "nvidia-detect", I'll open a new question later for that... it may be related..

EDIT: Now I fixed all my problems with nvidia, freeze etc..

--> It appears that the problem was coming from Nvidia Optimus, so I installed bumblebee (https://wiki.debian.org/Bumblebee), switch back "Primary Display" to nvidia. The only bad thing is every time I need to use my graphic card for a runnable, I need to run it by typing "optirun" or "primusrun" ...

And FYI, if your system won't boot after nvidia driver installation (because you have nvidia optimus or something else went wrong...), go to recovery mode type apt-get purge nvidia-* then rename xorg.conf file. (no need to reinstall debian like I did) If you still want to use graphic card install bumblebee by following instructions from the wiki link above

Upgrading to the latest kernel from Debian should do the trick.

You can do this by:

apt-get install linux-image-flavour

More information on how to upgrade your kernel:

  • So I reinstalled my system and tried this, it tells me that it can't find the package named "linux-image-flavour"
