Debian GNU/Linux 9 is now available - from Trixie?!

Hi, I've got Debian Trixie installed on three different machines (one laptop and two PCs) and on all of them there is the same strange issue: Discover application (the one for app management under KDE Plasma) shows the green box (at the top of the app window) with text: "Debian GNU/Linux 9

How can I test the graphics card?

Hi! How can I test memory of the graphics card? How can I test other features of the graphics card? Is there free software for this purpose? The menu texts in the "Blender" software are not readable. Sometimes the system freezes while watching a video. nouveau :01:00.0: fifo: CACHE_ERROR - ch
