I'd appreciate it if everyone could just stop burning fossil fuels, please. Thank you for your cooperation.

  • [Solved] How to get latest Mesa drivers for RX 9070

    Jump

  • One more idea... If you're willing to temporarily add the Debian testing "deb-src" repository to your sources.list, which should be slightly safer, then there's a chance that this might work: https://wiki.debian.org/SimpleBackportCreation

    Seems not completely crazy, unless MX has its own way to do that.

  • [Solved] How to get latest Mesa drivers for RX 9070

  • Yeah, I see that MX test is not based on current debian testing (trixie) but also bookworm. So I guess you'll not find the package in MX repos until it makes it into AHS. Apparently there's a PPA that some people use, that might work.

  • Ok, it didn't seem clear if you were on Debian 12 or MX. I'm not sure what the relationship between them is, but mesa 25 seems to be in trixie only since 13 march.

    Maybe you could use that package from debian testing on the MX version of testing if you wanted to live dangerously.

  • At this point in the debian release cycle your easiest course of action would probably be to switch over to debian testing. It's quite easy to do if you're in debian 12 and wanting newer packages is a legit reason to do it. It should be getting reasonably close to being stable by now I would guess.

    You'll need a newer kernel than is currently in debian stable as well, but that is actually quite easy to build and install. Building mesa I don't know about, but it will have many more dependencies and could be a lot of work.
