Thanks a lot for describing the above procedure.
I suppose this procedure is very important after every distribution 
installation, isn't it?

In my case, I have the following results:

I think all is well, isn't it?
Because the last line worries me a little.

Instead I doing system downgrade to go back,  what do you say to i did 
upgrade and go ahead to the Debian version 10 (codename buster) ?
Maybe it makes things worse?

Let's try what Nektarios suggested in a previous e-mail, to I login from 
terminal ( Alt + F4 ) and uninstall completely and then reinstall the 
GNOME desktop environment ??


P.S.: Anyway it's crazy that I'm typing this message *from this computer 
right now*. I'm afraid to shutting down because maybe it doesn't load my 
GNOME desktop environment again. *Doesn't this make you look crazy*?
10 times not loading the GNOME environment and and the last one to load 
it ?

Thank you for your time.
