Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Using nomodeset or i915.modeset=0 allows me to boot into the command
line but I'm unable to start the GNOME desktop. After installing the
desktop and rebooting it doesn't start. If I try to manually start it
(startx), I get an error "intel(0): no kernel modesetting driver
detected" and below that "No screens found".
