Whoa! No need to make so much fuss about the way I sent logs: I sent them directly attaching them in Thunderbird and via paste.debian.net. In my case there was NO log to /var/log/xorg.0.log. Can someone suggest how can I understand what's wrong with debian install? ... or is the implicit answer to go to Mint? After zillions of messages discussing what I should, should not, and perhaps would, do (not to mention the "meaning of should" to which we should give a cold shoulder) is there someone willing to give some hint? The best I got is "It works fine on my machine" (implying I must be non compos mentis). I have high respect of Debian philosophy and practice, but the list seems to be drifting a way a bit too much. Signal/noise ratio is dangerously approaching usenet standards. Sorry for the rant, but I'm really tired right now (05:18 AM here and i finished coffee supply some hours ago) g'nite!

Please explain just what it is in the way of personal info that we are to expunge before posting."can be considered" means opinions are involved, and possibly nothing is actually risky or personal or needs redaction. I'm not going to catalog what bits might be among them. One to consider: hostname
