Re: All Fonts White
Switch to a console with alt + ctrl + F1, log in, then halt X with:
sudo /etc/init.d/lightdm stop
Replace lightdm with your login manager if different. Then enter:
sudo Xorg -configure
sudo cp /root/xorg.conf.new /etc/X11/xorg.conf
In other distros, it created the xorg.conf.new file in my home folder, but wherever it is it'll say in the Xorg -configure output. Now you can restart X with startx.
One caveat, when you halt X your console's text might become garbled, so you'll have to type blind. This appears to be a Debian bug.
