So you claim it happens for everyone. I don't believe so.

See http://bugs.debian.org/868507. Giving the information requested there

Try without the binary nvidia drivers if you used them?

And/or try installing -gtk3 if you use a Gtk3-using desktop, that apparently
helps for the original bug submitter...
