5.15 kernel just won't do on Intel Rocket Lake...
...if you have a bad BIOS, and wish to boot with more than one connected display.
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/intel/-/issues/4762 explains the issue, which
has just been announced fixed. But, it appears the fix may only be landing in
kernel 5.17rc3.
I tried to get the latest available kernel that is packaged by Debian people by
reading on
https://wiki.debian.org/HowToUpgradeKernel
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianExperimental
I put
Package: linux-image
Pin: release a=experimental
Pin-Priority: 800
in /etc/apt/preferences.d/linux-kernel
and
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian experimental main
in /etc/apt/sources.list, but apt-cache and aptitude don't seem to know that
<http://ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/linux/linux-image-5.16.0-trunk-amd64-unsigned_5.16.4-1~exp1_amd64.deb>
exists.

What have I missed that prevents finding a recent kernel using package management
instead of relying on a web browser and wget?
