Hello, I have a Error Starting GDM with my computer (8086:591b) (rev04), I have 3.15 version of Tails. I tried all of those commands:

@emmapeel, please ask the affected users whether the problem happens with Tails 4.0.

#6 Updated by numbat 2 months ago

A user with the same graphic board claims troubleshooting mode works. I'm asking them to try out boot options from https://tails.boum.org/support/known_issues/graphics/#index3h2

#7 Updated by numbat 24 days ago

All options have been tried out, no success. Screen freezes.

I asked the user to try out Debian Live.

#8 Updated by numbat 23 days ago

Another report from a user with the latest Tails. Perhaps we should add this board to the list of known graphic cards that don't work?

this issue is still reported with 4.2, none of the workarounds are working around...

#10 Updated by goupille 9 days ago

a user facing this error when starting Tails tried to start Debian-live stable succefully (the computer froze when shutting down, tho), but it seems that this computer doesn't have only one GPU (a screenshot mention 'nouveau', I asked the user to confirm).

#11 Updated by numbat 5 days ago

A user has reported that using Tails 4.2.2 with the option nouveau.noaccel=1 seems to work. This user has multiple graphic cards, the other one is a NVIDIA GTX 1650 mobile.

#12 Updated by goupille 4 days ago

I just took a look at the user affected on my plate and it seems that at least 2 of them have an nvidia pascal (gtx 1050), I asked them to try the workarounds we usually propose for those gpu, but I wonder if the error screen does mention the right GPU...

#13 Updated by numbat 1 day ago

Same issue with AMD GPU on Mac

Error starting GDM with your graphics card: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Device [1002:7340] (rev 40).

User tried radeon.modeset=0 (no result)
