Please I am new on this site and asking from my phone (computer is not working). Tell me what is wrong and I will correct the question.
Problem
I am using Debian and when turning on the computer it starts in tty1, and I couldn't recover the graphical interface.
Edit
If I press Ctrl+Alt+F(i) it changes to tty(i) but any of them is the interface.
Ctrl+Alt+F7 doesn't produce anything.
Here an image showing how the screen looks:
When type startx terminal returns -bash: command not found. Reading on the web it was recommended to install xinit.
I did that and session starts but without sidebar, and terminal also doesn't open.
Here is a bad image (that's what I get with the cellphone) of the screen:
As you can see, there are no sidebars.
I am not sure if this has to do with the problem bit one of the last things I typed on terminal before it disappears was:rm -rf ~/anaconda
Any help with this problem?

Looking at your screenshots. Are you definitely using the official release of Debian? Or are you using Huayra Linux - based on Debian but different? Have you tried their community forum? foros.comunidadhuayra.org

For some unknown reason, your Debian installation is not booting into graphical mode anymore. As a workaround, once you've logged in, type
startx
to run the graphical environment.

@dr01: OP says that Ctrl+Alt+F7 gives him a dead, black screen. Do you expectstartxto work on tty1 through tty6 (assuming he figures out how to run it)?

@G-Man do you think it is unclear what I am asking? I don't know how to correct it. I have installed xinit from tty1 and then press startx. Session starts but without sidebars and terminal doesn't work. Please help..

(1) No, I don’t think the question is unclear.  If you look under your question, you will see the names of five people who voted to close the question — I was not one of them. (2) Unfortunately, this is out of my area of knowledge; I won’t be able to answer it.  (3) You should edit your question to include all relevant information — starting with what you just said in that last comment (the part about xinit and startx).  Explain exactly what you mean by “terminal doesn't workâ€Â, and maybe give us another photograph or screenshot.
