Backports for squeeze ===================== Cyril Brulebois <kibi@debian.org> Bird’s-eye view --------------- If one forgets about libraries and clients, a whole X stack boils down to: the server itself, input and video drivers, libdrm, and mesa. To keep things simple, the idea is to backport all of those to `squeeze` through `squeeze-backports`, along with some of the additional packages which might be involved (like `libxfont` or `x11proto-fixes-dev`). The backports were prepared so that it’s possible to upgrade the `input-all` and `video-all` meta packages on `amd64` and `i386`. If specific drivers (maintained by the X Strike Force) are wanted, requesting them on the `debian-backports@` / `debian-x@` mailing lists should do the trick. For other drivers, please contact the relevant package maintainers. Instructions ------------ The usual link:https://backports.debian.org/[backports instructions] apply. But let’s gather everything in a single place. Add that to your `sources.list`: ---- deb http://backports.debian.org/debian-backports squeeze-backports main ---- Update your cache: ---- apt-get update ---- If you’re interested in just upgrading the usual `mesa` packages: ---- apt-get install -t squeeze-backports libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-glx ---- If you want the whole stack, we should distinguish between two cases. In the usual case, both the `xserver-xorg-input-all` and `xserver-xorg-video-all` meta packages were installed, and pulled a lot of packages, which should work for most users. Specifying a few packages to upgrade should pull everything from `squeeze-backports`. ---- apt-get install -t squeeze-backports xorg xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-input-all xserver-xorg-video-all apt-get install -t squeeze-backports libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-glx ---- In case only the needed packages were installed, like the `synaptics` input driver and the `intel` video driver, the following should be sufficient: ---- apt-get install -t squeeze-backports xorg xserver-xorg xserver-xorg-core xserver-xorg-input-synaptics xserver-xorg-video-intel apt-get install -t squeeze-backports libgl1-mesa-dri libgl1-mesa-glx ---- It is probably a very good idea to install the Linux kernel from `squeeze-backports` as well. It is even required for the `nouveau` video driver.
