Bug#789448: linux-image-3.16.0-4-amd64: Arima NM46X (NVIDIA MCP55) hangs early on boot
I tried several precompiled kernels from http://snapshot.debian.org/package/linux/
linux-image-3.10-3-amd64 worked fine contrary to what previously reported (I probably did not compile the sources correctly last time).
I am going to try a few more precompiled kernels between 3.10 and 3.16 to try to narrow down when things stopped working. (I also tried linux-image-4.0.0-2-amd64 and did not work)
thanks

OK, then this probably isn't a bug in the graphics driver, which was my
first thought.

There are more versions available at
<http://snapshot.debian.org/package/linux/>.

You can't have everything. Where would you put it?
