Compared to Debian 8, I could log in to GNOME 3, but the system still freezes when using applications. applications.[/p]

[p]The MATE desktop still works better, and does not freeze anymore.[/p]

[p]I still [b]can't use[/b] applications such as Blender, SuperTux Kart, and other [b]3D applications[/b], nor use 3D in the Web browser.[/p]


[h2]Debian 8 (Jessie)[/h2]
[p]
I couldn't use Debian with GNOME 3 because the screen always displays [b]weird artifacts, and freezes[/b] in the login screen. I decided to reinstall Debian and chose MATE as the desktop environment, which is less graphic-intensive than GNOME 3, and the system is usable in this way. However, there are occasional freezes.[/p]

[p]Even though I can use the system with MATE, I [b]can't use[/b] applications such as Blender, SuperTux Kart, and other [b]3D applications[/b]. Nor can I use 3D in the Web browser. These things, however, are possible using the same video card on a Windows machine.[/p]
