Hi Richmond, regarding to debian/sid the package supports kernels up to 6.2. However, there are some issues, so it will segfault any qt-windowmangers (at the moment) and got some security issues. I succcessfully could build the sources with kernel-headers 6.0.1-9 (which with former kernels later than 5.10-22 did not work). But sadly in the end I did not succced at all, as it did not load the kernel modul and additionally it breaked my acceleration from the inbuilt gpu of the intel processor. So it was more a disappointment. On the other hand it could be, I made some mistakes and should upgrade additional libs from unstable. There is another thing, I also might done wrong (I wrote about some weeks ago in this forum): lspci says it is NVIDIA Corporation GF119M [Quadro NVS 4200M] (rev a1) and nvidia-detect (and some other sources, are telling me, that for this chipset NOT 340xx but 390xx should be used. Thisis wrong, as I could prove, that only 340xx (with kernel 5.10-22) is working. Installing 390xx, the kernel says: Wrong module, you have to use 340xx. This is the state at the moment. As I have only this laptop and no spare harddrive at the moment, I could not install debian/unstable for testing purposes. Maybe some time I will, or maybe some other guy will do it. Hope this makes some things clearer. Best regards Hans
