I using jxself linux-libre repository, but I only found 4.1 source, nothing about 4.3.
Someone knows some repository with linux-libre 4.3 source?

Strange I've just made an aptitude upgrade and it works fine.
Used this to upgrade to the last kernel

https://trisquel.info/fr/wiki/actualiser-le-kernel-linux-libre

then it's just aptitude upgrade to have the last version

I was happy when I saw the changelog of 4.2.5
amd drivers added yay I was hopping that my hd 7770 would be supported

then I saw the deblobed version
when will the manufacturers understand that we need the source of the hardware.

at least I have 2d acceleration
but still I can't put another monitor.

4.2.5 is latest stable release. 4.3 will be added eventually most likely.

There is no Debianized source package for 4.2 or later but that doesn't mean source code isn't available. Those are different matters. :)

Source code is available - It's required of me by the GPL but I'd be doing it even if it weren't because it's the right thing to do. (Because a program without source is proprietary and I'm not going to distribute proprietary software.)

To ensure that I'm in full compliance with the license you may download the tarball containing the complete and corresponding source code, kernel configuration files, and the instructions to compile and install the kernel from http://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/freesh/.

Thanks you jxself.

Anyway, what I needed is -headers package, and found it.
I got some compile(not kernel) errors, and must to delete /lib/modules/4.3.0-gnu folder, after reinstall kernel+headers, I could compile.
Everything works now.
