Re: X unstable / integrated graphics chipset



Hi Sébastien,

change this line in /etc/apt/sources.list :

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ trixie main non-free-firmware non-free contrib
to

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ trixie testing main non-free-firmware non-free contrib

and create /etc/apt/preferences with the following content:

Package: *
Pin: release a=testing
Pin-Priority: 90

I recommend a value below 100 for the Pin-Priority so that the packages of the backports repository are preferred over those in testing.

Then, command

  sudo apt update

which downloads current information about all packages in the configured repositories (compare Debian Reference Chap. 2.5).

To see which packages are now available and which of them are installed, command

  apt list '~nlinux-image-amd64' --all-versions

More information about the versions and changes of a Debian package can be found on the web-site https://tracker.debian.org/ .

In order to test the installation, say, of the package linux-image-amd64 from the testing repository, command

  sudo apt -t testing install linux-image-amd64 --simulate

This shows which packages would actually be installed.

If it's o.k. for you to install the proposed packages, repeat the command without '--simulate'.

Regards,
Jörg.
