hmm
I get the same tmux problem on the desktop (VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation NV44 [GeForce 6200 SE TurboCache] (rev a1))
and the laptop. Intel mobile chipset.
Works fine in Fbterm.
removed .tmux.conf, no difference.
otherwise gfx are fine and dandy, on both.

minor thing, when i booted on the desktop it took it's time to get to the usb boot screen.
I waited while i played with the other computer, then it jumped into boot after 30secs.
laptop went straight in.
fun - already changed the source.list cn.archive was slooow!

Beautiful. Gonna grab this, and see if it breaks me or I break it, first.

OK, I got the same problem on an Ideapad Y560 with ATI and i915 cards. fbterm + tmux works, but pure tty + tmux simply doesn't do anything and waits for ctrl-d. Same if with byobu wrapper. GNU screen seems to work OK, so ...
...gotta investigate on this one. Thanks anyone for testing so far, and sorry if your computer belongs to the problem group.

Similar problems on different bases, or at least somewhat related - please ignore, I just store it for myself as reference:

I can confirm this is consistent across Lenovo T430 Intel HD4000/Toshiba Satellite with the aftermentioned Intel S 4/Lenovo T400 with ATI Mobility Radeon 3400. I've not made any progress yet on a fix. Not done working on it, but I'm going to be out of place for a while. I'll get back on it tomorrow if you don't have it knocked out by then.

So the first problem, about MOC segfaulting due to an upstream bug in librcc0 can be fixed easily like this:
- download the librcc0 package from sid at packages.debian.org
- apt-get install librcd0 (yes, that's another packages)
- install librcc0 with dpkg -i
- apt-get install moc
fixed.
