[SOLVED] MX-19 Repository: intel-microcode

[mjtux]

The Package installer shows two versions of intel-microcode installed:

• 3.20191115.2~deb10u1 (stable repo)
• 3.20190918.1~mx19+1 (mx test repo)

What is the difference between these two and should I remove one?

I Uninstalled the microcode package in the Test Repo since it was Not marked as Upgradable.
After a reboot, the microcode package in the Stable Repo showed not installed.
I re-installed the Stable package. Afterwards, the Test package again showed as being installed.

Are you running MX19, or is it MX18?
Note: 18 upgrade to 19 is not recommended.

MX19 64-bit
This is a fresh/new install.

I think you are misreading the output, as you can have only one version installed. That should be the latest version that Debian has pushed to Buster: 3.20191115.2~deb10u1, since it's higher than the version we added to our repo back when Debian hadn't updated for a while.

Code: Select all

apt policy intel-microde

will clear things up.

Understood.
Thanks.
