Comments/Problems:

Installing debian testing (Trixie) with the "graphical install" option is not possible, the process stops immediately after launch, with a black screen with various errors in the same screen(perhaps from the x.org server) including:

"Fatal server error: no screen found (EE)" 

and lastly:

"(debconf:841): GTK-WARNING: 16:05:14:030: cannot open display: :0"

and the error recurs in an infinite loop.

At this point the PC is blocked and a hardware reset is required to restart.
ISO image verified with sha256.
I attach photos of the screen on which the block of system occurs immediately after launching the graphics installation.

Thank you

Diego

Hi,

I've revamped the patch (it didn't apply on xorg-server
2:21.1.7-3+deb12u8), built xorg-server, built linux-image 6.12.3 +
debian-installer from git and can confirm that this patch helped and now
graphical installer works fine.

This has been fixed in 2:21.1.15-1

Cheers,
Emilio
