Hello: I decided to try jessie to get PCIe 3.0 with a recent nvidia driver, thus upgrading from wheezy.
wheezy was uname -r 3.2.0-4-amd64 nvidia-smi 304.88 nvcc --version 4.2 (the latter is also the version at which the molecular dynamics code was compiled, and used without calling the X-server) ******************** Following aptitude update aptitude-upgrade a number of dependecies related to gnome were not met (evolution-common lbfolks25 gnome-panel gnome-shell gnome-theme-extras gnome-theme-standard libreoffice-evolution). This notwithstanding, I decided to upgrade. After rebooting to get linux matching with nvidia: nvcc --version 5.0 uname -r 3.10-3-amd64 nvidia-smi the nvidia kernel module has version 304.108 but the nvidia driver component has version 319.60. Driver 319.6 is just what I wanted. Now, how best fix the problems? Install linux image 3.2? In the past I tried dist-upgrade, getting into devastating problems. thanks francesco pietra PS I was advised that debian is getting bounces from my address above.
