the following packages have unmet dependencies

Debian is supposed to require more thought, I get that, I even like that, and I'm doing the best I can to learn as I go along. Ubuntu has gotten a dangerous foothold, most tutorials/wikis available are written for Ubuntu, there are several sites dedicated to Ubuntu tutorials, but so few available for Debian. I know enough to be dangerous, but I'm far from being a good Linux hacker. I learn something new every day, it's slow going but I'll get there eventually. I've walked away from Ubuntu, mostly for their politics, which remind me alot of the way Microsoft does business, and what I see of them shows me that's what they're aiming for, a lock on the Linux community. I'm not quite smart enough, nor do I have the background to put it all together to be what I want. Well, I did do a conversion to Jessie on a testing machine, changing the sources and whatnot, I lost some things in the translation that I personally need to have, but there is no complete Jessie or Sid installation media, it's all piecemeal. Maybe the next machine I install to I'll use Jessie instead of Wheezy, but the sources issue will remain.ĭude, upgrade to Sid and you will get Ubuntu with a small difference that Nvidia and sudo you will have to configure manually. I love Debian, and I don't use Ubuntu anymore because I don't like their politics, but Debian seriously needs to catch up in some aspects. And if Debian or someone using Debian were to build a Netflix desktop that used Debian sources I wouldn't have to use Ubuntu sources to watch my streaming movies on Netflix. It looks like more than it is when it's installing. As to the backport upgrades, I upgraded LibreOffice and the Kernel, it also upgraded dependencies. To get better NVIDIA support you need 3.11.6 or better.
