I have managed to compile and package the 4.4.11 kernel following Katolaz instructions (thank you!). It took ages to compile....and I knew I would forgot to create a initrd for it: kernel panic at first boot!
And yet today I saw... >Lazier: apt-get -t jessie-backports install linux-image-4.5.0... New kernel in 1 minute....batteries included (thank you fsr). ...my bad I didn't investigate more the backports options... looking at the bright side, though, now I learned the task. Nouveau driver is now working, but they are buggy (some characters missing from panel and windows titles in XFCE) and when I start steam X freezes so badly that I have to ssh reboot it. On a laptop with an older nvidia card and fresh installation steam worked flawlessly on nouveau driver.... On the same laptop I tried also the latest KubuntuD and it sucked all the way obliging to install nvidia proprietary driver for steam to work.... Just an update on my mouse wheel running....
