Bug#774104: failed installation of Debian 7.7.0

[gml@garymlewis.com]

Hi Holger - Good idea; seemed hopeful. But I cannot get to the command 
line to add /etc/modprobe.d/disable-nouveau.conf with the recommended 
option for nouveau modeset.

I appreciate your help, but will return to Ubuntu 14.04. It gives me an 
acceptable user interface that I can use to move ahead, even though it 
doesn't flawlessly handle the 2880 x 1620 display resolution on my 
ThinkPad W540.

Thanks very much for your help.

Gary
