yeah, you said you as going to install the firmware from backports, I guess you never got around to it. I sent a link, you can either download the .deb and install it or add the non-free to the backports repo and it will show up.Laurel wrote:Hi bw123. Thank you again for your help and time.
Firstly, firmware version 20161130-3 is installed (if that is a date in the firmware version, is it ~2 years too old?)
DON'T move that example Intel conf file to the working directory if you don't have Intel graphics, unless you want to break your GUI for some reason. For the most part, the free drivers don't need a conf file unless you need to specify some non-default options.arzgi wrote:xorg in /doc/ does not do anything.

This one of the things in the guide you linked that I disagree with. I used to do this, but with only one kernel installed, from backports, if there is ever an issue, say with network stack, or a regression that breaks your video, you're going to be stranded and have to manually transfer a working kernel by usb, or a live system. For that reason, I always leave the stable kernel installed.Laurel wrote:
