@seion We’ve been updating the CPU/GPU names this week. This is an EXPERIMENTAL build. It may not be stable for anything else but: 1. CPU/GPU should now identify correctly. 2. CPU/GPU transcoding should work correctly. [https://artifacts.plex.tv/plex-media-server-experimental/1.41.3.9148-40c811519/debian/plexmediaserver\_1.41.3.9148-40c811519\_amd64.deb](https://artifacts.plex.tv/plex-media-server-experimental/1.41.3.9148-40c811519/debian/plexmediaserver_1.41.3.9148-40c811519_amd64.deb) I cannot speak to Ubuntu 24.10. It’s new. No testing of it has been performed here yet. ---

I will be doing a fresh installed of Debian Testing here soon and will try again and see if it works. I will then move to trying it in a Podman Container. If you look at that Discord link I had, I messed around with a bunch of stuff and cannot say that did not affect the outcome of it working. ---

Totally understand. Small (1 folder), bare metal, will confirm it works. It will also prove/disprove docker issue You can setup a custom location using /etc/systemd/system/plexmediaserver.service.d/override.conf ---

@seion I advise caution when using “Debian Testing”. Any & All “Beta” distros have problems. As such, we cannot support those type releases. I advise you to stick to mainstream releases. “Bleeding edge” does cut deep in most cases. ---

@ChuckPa I can’t boot Debian Stable at all with the Ultra Core 7 265K. The kernel I think is too old. Most I could do is stick with Ubuntu 24.10 ---

Too OLD? Let me look for you. I know the 6.8 kernel (Ubuntu 24.04 LTS) is good enough for AlderLake, RaptorLake and MeteorLake Desktop processors. Have you considered a test install with Ubuntu Server 24.04 (you want headless, right?) EDIT: It’s ArrowLake (as I thought). You can go Ubuntu Server route with good stability and success. It might be a few updates until the kernel itself has all the bells and whistles but you’re fine in a server environment. Kernel 6.8 already has the bulk of it for the AlderLake and above. EDIT: Debian Bookworm is 6.1 kernel. I’m on Ubuntu 22.04 on my desktop and already 6.8-48 ---

The experimental build updates ALL the current CPUs and GPUs. Primary example: I have a Nvidia RTX 2000 GPU. PMS could not identify it / use it correctly until now (January 2024 released product) ![Screenshot from 2024-11-01 12-36-44](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/plex/original/4X/a/8/2/a820e7c362999ce2d9d95a3a1712c486eacf72c5.png) This work is a major update for all of PMS and will go to review & QA next. I cannot promise how quickly it gets released but would NOT be surprised to see it in the next release cycle. ---

@seion @bckp If you want to use this DEB in your docker. There is a little bit of editing you need do > docker exec -it [plex\_container\_name] /bin/bash Then execute > ./plex\_service.sh -d > dpkg -i Filename.deb > echo PlexMediaServer-1.41.3.9148-40c811519 \> /version.txt > ./plex\_service.sh -u —\> **Replace and update the version number in the string and redo the procedure when the next version comes out and you want to update.** (The contents of `/version.txt` controls whether or not it force-reloads the DEB) ---
