Hello everyone, I'm having a problem installing the latest linux-libre kernel from the repository I get an error

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
linux-libre64 : Depends: linux-image-3.19.2-gnu but it is not installable
linux-libre64-headers : Depends: linux-headers-3.19.2-gnu but it is not installable
E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

Package linux-image-3.19.2-gnu is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'linux-image-3.19.2-gnu' has no installation candidate

Can I get any assistance with this?

Have you tried running:

$ apt-get -f install
$ apt-get clean
$ apt-get update

This may resolve the issue, but I could be wrong.

Hmm..

Unfortunately I have not had a problem like this so I'm curious how to fix it also (in case I break something later). Sorry my suggestion didn't work! Luckily this forum is full of folks a lot smarter than me who may be able to help.

Thank you for your help

the problem should be replicated by doing a fresh install of trisquel 7 full and following this guide https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/update-linux-libre-kernel

I have a gtx 970 and I think I need the latest kernel for the free drivers im stuck at a low resolution :(

Nouveau will probably never support Maxwell using exclusively free firmware. The firmware is signed by NVIDIA and not replaceable. Only firmware signed by NVIDIA can be used.

There is no 3D acceleration for Maxwell currently (no firmware available right now), and there will probably never be one with free firmware.

So I figured out that the current repos updated to linux-image-3.19.3-gnu and once I installed that everything now works perfectly
