New thread following this one http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=137404
On this reddit thread, "paines" seems to have the same problem : https://www.reddit.com/r/debian/comment ... my_system/
I'm on Debian Testing, Gnome DE, kernel 4.16.1, on an ASUS F200M with a Samsung SSD.
I was on kernel 4.15.3, and the following problem happened after the 4.16.1 update :
I'm stuck right before login screen, with usual tty1 output, no obvious output error (but I don't know where to search for logs)
When logging into tty2, launching x server with startx, I was automatically sent back to tty1 after a few seconds.
Same without GUI, tty2 cursor stops blinking, same issue.
However, I tried booting with older kernels (4.15.3, 4.15.2) without success.
I tried installing haveged, without success.
I tried installing rng-tools5, without success.
I tried reinstalling gdm3, without success.
I removed gdm3 and installed lightdm instead, and it works as a temporary solution.
The problem (at least mine) seems definitely tied to gdm3 (version 3.28.1 in the repo).
Can someone help me ?

Might be related to SSDs and 4.16 kernel. I don't have the problems described on my Sid system on HDD running GNOME.
