The ONLY consistently workable series has BEEN Linux Mint. I’ve tried various builds of Debian and have NEVER been successful. I figured that Mint had it figured out-WRONG. After fighting thru various obstacles to begin installation I gave up during the partition configuration phase. SHEESH!!

I don’t think debian wants to keep up even opensuse has been more bleeding edge by the years fedora also , i dont think why it even exists ? only debian testing makes sense.

Tried move the repositories to testing and the system broke while on debian it works.
Any way with all these linux mint/ubuntu repositories you find more software on linux mint and its easier !
I used to prefer debian edition but not my cup of tea anymore.

Hi, I added the “nomodeset” flag in the linux-line in grub.cfg (and in /etc/default/grub –necessary, I gess, not lose this flag in a future grub-update ). With this I got rid of screen-freezing with Mint-17. (superuser!)

Hope this works for you as well.
