Email client shouldn't be relevant. You can redirect dmesg to a file, to copy or

Before retiring the Intel, run glmark2 and note the score, to compare with the
GTX
once you get it working. It's the only GUI speed tester I use.
I don't see enough in your log excerpts. You should pastebinit the entire

I have an old NVidia booted here now. This is what using nouveau looks like at
