Re: X does not work in Debian 9.4
Hello Ennio,
this usually happens when you are using a graphics driver that
depends on a kernel module that is not shipped with the standard
kernel, like nvidia-driver for example. You need to reinstall the
module, linking it against the new kernel (boot into 4.15 and reinstall
the driver).
