From what I’ve gathered, hopefully we can get buster working correctly with the correct graphic drivers, doing an apt-get full-upgrade, and then running the scripts mentioned here by @r043v
And then running
I’ll give it a shot. @adcockm as @Joao_Manoel, did you end up having any luck?
Thinking back to this post, perhaps having a kernel that doesn’t have the -/_ change, and a community image that has the file not requiring the symbolic link or file name change could be a way forward. The community image was the way forward in the past. Naturally, I would include this with my own DEOT image.
It may fragment releases, having a kernel only applicable to a fork, but as it stands now, there has been a lot of kernel development that isn’t included with the current official image anyway.
Edit: Looks like it works, at least functionally. Here’s my dmesg | grep output.
