Re: Lenovo Yoga 300

Bonjour Jean-Philippe.

You don't need backports for debian jessie.
For debian jessie you need the kernel 3.16
If you try to use the kernel 4.3.0.0.bpo you will have only problems.
I have also tried to use the kernel 4.3.0.0.bpo and I became only problems.
Also I installed new debian jessie and I took the kerenel 3.16 also with 
lenovo thinkpad edge e540
and see, I didn't have any problems.
Sorry, my english is not so good.
Je n'aime pas la langue anglaise.
Gérard.
