I don't understand the confusion. linux-image-6.1.0... depends on linux-base (>= 4.3~) and linux-image-6.12... depends on linux-base (>= 4.12~). So you need a newer linux-base than available in debian12. > In fact, I cannot find 6.15 in the > cache: > > root@pcale:# apt-cache search linux-image| grep 6.15 linux-image-6.15 is in debian experimental for now only. > root@pcale:# > > The highest I can find with apt-cache is a 6.12.27 backport: > > root@pcale:# apt-get install --print-uris linux-image-6.12.27+bpo-rt-amd64 > ... > 'http://deb.devuan.org/merged/pool/DEBIAN/main/l/linux-signed-amd64/linux-image-6.12.27%2bbpo-rt-amd64_6.12.27-1%7ebpo12%2b1_amd64.deb' linux-image-6.12.27+bpo-rt-amd64_6.12.27-1~bpo12+1_amd64.deb 107428604 > > Which is redirected to an URL in the same directory as the 6.15 you suggested: > Location: http://deb.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux-signed-amd64/linux-image-6.12.27+bpo-rt-amd64_6.12.27-1~bpo12+1_amd64.deb > > > Thinking again, maybe it would be more productive to try and install the latest kernel, in case the problem is fixed there. Yeah, 6.15 is a good first approximation for "latest kernel". There is 6.16-rc3 upstream already, but that isn't packaged yet. Best regards Uwe
