Brigo 2017-03-02 11:15:05

Brigo: based on what? Last I saw, 4.9 LTS was the choice.
sloucher 2017-03-02 11:15:31
Ty Brigo
Brigo 2017-03-02 11:15:57
sloucher, backports, jessie already has 4.9

I thinking about getting Kabylake processor for a Stretch build. You think that is wise?
greycat 2017-03-02 11:16:11
jessie has 3.16.
Brigo 2017-03-02 11:16:11
4.10 is in the oven (experimental). :)
Brigo 2017-03-02 11:16:47
sloucher, i don't know even what you are talking about :D
sloucher 2017-03-02 11:17:20
the cpu - intel kabylake is the newest one. I think it's a month or two old.
missmbob 2017-03-02 11:17:22
sloucher: sure. i'd suggest using 4.10 kernel though
PacoMS95 2017-03-02 11:17:58
hi people! I want to update my intel hd graphics 520 but there is no official driver on the official page
sloucher 2017-03-02 11:18:07
right missmbob - that is why I asked. Sounds like 4.10 will make it down?
PacoMS95 2017-03-02 11:18:40
seems like Debian does not recognice the graphic card
missmbob 2017-03-02 11:18:41
sloucher: to stretch-backports when it's released. or you can just get it from sid later. or build your own.
sloucher 2017-03-02 11:18:45
They announced it would be 4.10 I believe.
missmbob 2017-03-02 11:18:54
sloucher: 4.9
PacoMS95 2017-03-02 11:19:56
the issue came from a problem I had trying to run OBS Studio
missmbob 2017-03-02 11:20:54
sloucher: keep in mind 4.9 will work. just 4.10 has specify kabylake fixes you'll want
sloucher 2017-03-02 11:22:26
missmbob: I bet we read the same article.
missmbob 2017-03-02 11:22:44
sloucher: anyway point is getting 4.10 will be simple. go for it if you can afford it
sloucher 2017-03-02 11:23:41
I think I will. Kabylake here I come! Thanks missmbob

Can I install a specific package only from testing/unstable?
c-c 2017-03-02 11:27:16
yes
somiaj 2017-03-02 11:27:24
if running stable I would not do that
c-c 2017-03-02 11:27:24
gmh: perhaps you should google that first?
missmbob 2017-03-02 11:27:24
!tell gmh about jessie-backports
missmbob 2017-03-02 11:27:35
!tell gmh about dont break debian
c-c 2017-03-02 11:27:42
gmh: backports are what most use
somiaj 2017-03-02 11:27:47
if running stable you should either install or create a backport.
c-c 2017-03-02 11:27:49
gmh: you could also compile your own
gmh 2017-03-02 11:29:46
Thanks guys :)
c-c 2017-03-02 11:29:58
( apt-get source packagename )
c-c 2017-03-02 11:30:38
(or $ apt-get source packagename=version )
c-c 2017-03-02 11:31:13
I wonder if theres anyone who only uses source packages with debian
somiaj 2017-03-02 11:31:29
you can't source packages don't work that way.
somiaj 2017-03-02 11:31:51
one could compile every source package into a binary themselvse, but then install/use the binary.
