If you are installing from scratch, yes. If you are upgrading, go straight from "stable" or "jessie" to "stretch", and don't bother with "testing".

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: Oh no something has gone wrong! after reinstalling Debian and Gnome. UTC Time: May 22, 2017 1:54 PM From: anilduggirala@fastmail.fm Thanks a lot Felix and Micheal. I will follow your advice, and for the first time ever, use Debian Testing. I guess when Stretch is released I will be able to install that, correct? So I will be able to go back to using a stable release right? FAQ101 No, if you chose testing (replace in sources.list or in synaptics list the word jessie with testing) once stretch is stable you will be there, just like if you had just installed Debian9 from the disk and added all your current packages. But if you don't replace testing with stretch you will end up one step beyond (debian 10). So it is best to replace jessie with stretch in your repository/sources.list (/etc/apt/sources.list use root or sudo to edit). Then eventually you will be running stretch stable, which might be tomorrow or next month. I'm really afraid of testing, the whole reason I like Debian is for its stability, but using stable would require me to install various packages from backports maybe?? I did try installing that newer kernel, that didn't work. How did you try that? Not all lin4. is compatible with stretch. The only thing to fear is stability, or too much of it. I have run stretch and sid (testing and unstable currently) and I get a sense that sid is even lighter and more stable in hardware resources. With all the fooling around I do I have yet to see anything break or freeze or do anything unexpected in sid. Stretch is so stable it is boring :) Now Jessie, that is a really unstable system ;b .... even your graphics don't like it. thanks a lot, (AK)

But even that, as I recall, only had me broken a day or so, as I either manually fixed it, or just reinstalled a fresh sid, or waited until the breakage "fixed itself". The conclusion I have come to after all these years is that for a workstation that doesn't have a mission-critical need for five-9's uptime, sid/unstable is a good solution for staying up-to-date and happy, but it's probably not suitable for a mission-critical box. -- Kent West <")))>< Westing Peacefully - http://kentwest.blogspot.com

Hello, I have upgrade to Stretch, and my system is loading the graphical interface (Gnome). However, I believe my graphics are sluggish, video playback at some points starts freezing and sometimes just becomes unwatchable (it starts using up a lot of CPU power). In the recommendations here (https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebianOn/Intel/NUC5PPYH) it says to install non-free firmware, the Debian installer asked for firmware-realtek, I provided it and I believe that I installed. But what non-free firmware could possible correct my graphics problems? what am I missing. I am happy my system is working, but graphics work better in Windows, and that is morally inacceptable to me. thanks a lot, On Mon, May 22, 2017, at 09:11 PM, Jimmy Johnson wrote: > On 05/21/2017 05:24 PM, Anil Duggirala wrote: > > Thanks everyone for your responses.

That's incomplete as before, so we have to look it up. You were asked: inxi -c0 -G or inxi -c0 -v1 or lspci -nnk | grep -A4 'VGA' Looking up 8086:22b1 finds the keyword Braswell, which provides the all important date of introduction of it. It was introduced more than 8 months after Jessie, thus not supported by pure Jessie.

He says that it isn't, so there may be a driver missing?? It is hard to tell since he is so reluctant to provide information. :-( Lisi

We had a user with a Braswell system (Intel Pentium N3710) in IRC yesterday, and he was not even able to *boot* into stretch normally (hard-locked with a black screen and no logs written to disk, even in rescue mode, unless he suppled the "nomodeset" kernel option). He could boot jessie, but the graphics ran without acceleration. There's definitely some room for improvement in Debian's support of Intel Braswell systems. But we'll need a whole lot more information.

Thanks a lot for your replies. Yes I believe I dont have graphics
acceleration. My interface is sluggish. I believe I am playing video
with Totem, it has these mini freezes and then after some while starts
to freeze badly making it unwatchabel.

UTC Time: May 24, 2017 2:12 PM From: anilduggirala@fastmail.fm hello, I pasted my Xorg log at https://paste.debian.net/938243 [ 65.388] Build Operating System: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian 6th line down, is the new debian9rc installer same as Debian 8.8? I assume jessie was installed and then it was upgraded to stretch, right? So some of the X and dm configuration files were based on Jessie and were just revised based on those settings. That's what I think. I may be very wrong as my knowledge is incomplete. Fungi: this is an Asus X441SA laptop, is this also mix and match laptop? I don't know, I've never had one. I know that lenovo dell hp stuff are well tested and ironed out in all systems, maybe some sony toshiba etc. I know nothing of asus, I've used some of their mb building and repairing stuff. I did a clean install from Debian installer of Stretch, nothing is left from previous Jessie. swithching *dm is still a valid idea in this case? thanks a lot, It was a suggestion of an easy and safe thing to do. It takes 5-10' round trip, or 2 reboots. If I remember right you have lxde. Between that and Xofc it is the safest bet to figure out what may be wrong, the rest of the desktops I believe are much more demanding and have more to go wrong with. The official stretch installer will not be out till it becomes stable. There is a beta version of it out but I've never used it. I doubt it would say 3.16 on it though. You can't get to GT from a v6 mustang that easy :)

The lines in question actually say: [ 65.388] Build Operating System: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 x86_64 Debian [ 65.388] Current Operating System: Linux laptopanil 4.9.0-2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.18-1 (2017-03-30) x86_64 [ 65.388] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-4.9.0-2-amd64 root=UUID=47d1db29-628c-4a50-9ab1-808217075da8 ro quiet Which is to say, this system is running kernel package 4.9.0-2-amd64, but the X server was *built* by the Debian maintainers under kernel package 3.16.0-4-amd64. Which is not relevant to the current problem as far as I'm aware.

Given that that log contains no (EE) errors, switching to a different DE might be a solution. That log also reports the modeset(0) driver is in use. It's possible that the Intel driver would work better. If you wish to try the Intel driver and dpkg -l | grep intel does not return xserver-xorg-video-intel then do apt install xserver-xorg-video-intel and cp /usr/share/doc/xserver-xorg-video-intel/xorg.conf /etc/X11 followed by login manager restart or reboot. Then report results and provide Xorg.0.log on https://paste.debian.net again if not a satisfactory improvement. Also if not improved, do journalctl | grep failed and post that result here if fairly short, or on https://paste.debian.net/ if extensive. Also, try a different WM/DE, as this problem could be limited to Gnome. FWIW, I use TDE on Stretch, installed via these instructions: https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/DebianInstall -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
