Thanks for your reply. I have purchased the laptop with the i5-62OOU.
I installed jessie and :

-1- with firmware-iwlwifi, wireless almost ok : 
the connection is cut regularly every few minutes. It is a bug of firmware-iwlwifi. 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=firmware-iwlwifi;dist=unstable

-2- no sound with linux-image 3.16 but ok with linux-image-4.2.0-0.bpo.1-amd64

-3- I put stretch in my sources.list but when I do :
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade 

the change is ignored.

With knoppix 7.4 the connection wifi works fine.
the laptop is sold without OS or ubuntu so I guess the wifi also works 
fine with ubuntu.(I took it without OS)

How can I fix 1 in debian and 3 ?
