For Stretch, this means that you will need the kernel 4.19 from backports, but given your terminal output: > Building for 4.9.0-9-amd64 > Building for architecture amd64 > Module build for kernel 4.9.0-9-amd64 was skipped since the > kernel headers for this kernel does not seem to be installed. you are attempting this manipulation on Linux 4.9; I reckon that it is easy to be confused by these version numbers. As of the inconsistency between linux-image and linux-headers, actually, your package linux-image-4.9.0-9-amd64 is out of date and replaced by linux-image-4.9.0-11-amd64, which matches the header you mention: > apt-cache search linux-headers-4.9.0- > ... > linux-headers-4.9.0-11-all-amd64 - All header files for Linux 4.9 But since it is the kernel 4.19 that is mentioned in the wiki article, I suspect that you will need to bump both your Linux image and headers version to 4.19.X. > cannot find linux-headers-4.9.0-9-amd64 anywhere > not sure what to do now > can you please advise what to do next ? > MSI RX 560 AERO ITX 4G OC Cool! I also have an RX 560, bought a few months ago to replace my old HD 5770 and take advantage of amdgpu and vulkan compatibility. I'm running Debian Sid, which provides a more than decent support for this card, almost out of the box, and for quite some time already. The driver is directly available in Linux, I only needed the non-free firmware-amd-graphics to make sure the card operates properly, and of course the package xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu. Maybe you could simply consider an upgrade to Debian 10 if Debian 9 doesn't do with this card? Contrary to NVidia, for which decent support of their cards is only achieved by their proprietary driver, open source drivers support for AMD GPU is relatively decent. Maybe Debian 9 is a bit old for that particular card though, but I haven't had the opportunity to test it on that OS level. For which purpose would you need specifically the amdgpu-pro driver?
