Edit /etc/apt/sources.list to have the following contents: deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free Then run the apt commands mentioned previously to install the packages you want from unstable. Newer packages will always be prioritized over older packages, so it is fine having both testing and unstable listed as repositories at the same time. Then edit the contents of /etc/apt/sources.list to be the following: deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free deb-src http://deb.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free #deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free The commented out line removes the unstable repository, but makes it easy to add back in whenever you need it.
