Sorry, a bit off-topic perhaps:
is there some apt-get command that'll upgrade all installed *mesa* packages to the "-t jessie-backports" version?
Wouldn't 'sudo apt-get install -t jessie-backports thispackage thatpackage...' do it?
...or do you mean some regex filter for all the packages with *mesa* in their names?
EDIT: quick test shows it may not be simple:
john@bunsen1:~$ apt-get install -s -t jessie-backports '.*mesa.*'
NOTE: This is only a simulation!
apt-get needs root privileges for real execution.
Keep also in mind that locking is deactivated,
so don't depend on the relevance to the real current situation!

You are still using the stock jessie kernel, have you installed the newer kernel from the jessie-backports repository?
sudo apt install -t jessie-backports linux-image-amd64
If you already have that package installed then you need to select that kernel from the GRUB menu.
Are you multibooting?
Is BunsenLabs defining the bootloader configuration?
If not, update the bootloader from the operating system in control of the boot process.

Hello
1/

Yes, I installed the new kernel. To make shure I tried that same comand again and it said it was already installed.
2/Also I specifically selected the new kernel on the grub menu.
3/I'm not multibooting.
4/BunsenLabs is the defining operating system in control

It only gives me those two options... Giving the old kernel a try it seems everithing works the same as if I selected the newer one. I mean there are the same video errors.

You are not booted with the jessie-backports kernel and it does not appear to be installed.
Can we see:
apt search linux-image | grep installed
Offline
Also, you have a mix of 32-bit and 64-bit kernels -- if you have installed a 32-bit system then you should *not* use and "amd64" image, install the 32-bit version instead.
Unfortunately, I have no 32-bit machines and have absolutely no idea which kernel you should use for such hardware, perhaps somebody else can help.
Use this to show all the kernels that are installable:
apt search linux-image

Yes, I think so.
If you want to keep the system you have now then reboot into the 686-pae kernel and use these commands:
sudo apt purge linux-image-amd64
sudo apt install -t jessie-backports linux-image-686-pae
When you reboot again, the default GRUB menu entry should be for kernel 4.7 and this should fix your problems.

what a bloody mess.
instead of reinstalling 64bit from scratch, you installed a 64bit kernel?
and what is grsec, i386, 686-pae all doing there???
i repeat, this is messed up.
given your expertise, i'd say starting from zero is your best option:
https://www.bunsenlabs.org/installation … key-method
and once your through with this, install the newer kernel (just the usual backported kernel, i think it's 4.7, for the same architecture you installed) as outlined in

That is the output of `apt search linux-image` and does not display what is installed locally.
You can see from the `ls /boot` output that the only kernels installed are the stock amd64 & 686-pae versions, once the amd64 variant is removed and the backported 686-pae is in place then the OP's system should work.
I would still recommend switching to 64-bit though, even with 2GiB of RAM, primarily because of the enhanced security offered by the increased bitness (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Address_s … domization & https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position-independent_code).

Hello!
One last thing I promise!
Output
It seems that video works well now and everything looks correct. 32 bit Kernel 4.7 is the default now. Nevertheless, my wifi stopped working (works fine with the old kernel),
so cant verify the online video.
Also, you guys conviced me. I'll reinstall bunsen 64bit. Nevertheless cant do it right now as I have deadlines for works soon So Ill tell you guys of the happy ending in another ocasion.
Wifi
The crazy adventures of Mr/Mrs Wificard
I have always had problems with the wifi. However I solved them by downlading the firmware
for my wifi (firmware-iwlwifi_0.43_all.deb) And from time to time when it decides
to stop working so I just reinstall the firmware.
Hovewer, with the new kernel this doesnt work... Looks like the wifi firmware that I downloaded isnt compatible somehow...
While booting this error comes up
Error:

firmware: fail to load iwlwifi-3160-16.uc

Is there somewhere were i can get a backport-kernel wifi firmware?

*************************************************SOLUTION***************************************************
Problem
Video doenst work properly
This problem is aparently related to new intel hardware.
This example is for a 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Intel Corporation Atom/Celeron/Pentium Processor x5-E8000/J3xxx/N3xxx
Diagnostic tools used during the process
1/ lspci -k|grep -iA2 vga

8/ ls /boot
9/ ls -l /
10/ cat /proc/cmdline
11/ apt search linux-image | grep installed
12/ apt search linux-image
Process
Before starting, the process is slightly different for 32 bits and 64 bits. People recomend strongly 64 bits if your computer is 64 bits
The video problem is solved by installing a newer kernel, a backports-version kernel. Also, install privative intel drivers and update and install "mesa."
1/ Install xserver-xorg intel driver
2/ Install libegl1-mesa libgl1-mesa-glx libgl1-mesa-dri
3/ Upgrade to backports kernel
For 64 bits:

For 32 bits is the same process but, you have to install another image:
sudo apt install -t jessie-backports linux-image-686-pae
(insted of the amd64 one)
It is fairly well explained in the thred anyway.

It should be clarified that the mesa and xserver-xorg-video-intel packages are already installed, they need to be upgraded to the jessie-backports versions, along with any firmware packages you have installed. You can get a list of firmware packages and their status with
apt-cache policy firmware*
Though some, like firmware-linux-nonfree, are metapackages and will pull in a lot of those others automatically.
The x5-E8000 graphics are some sort of new-generation Atom: http://ark.intel.com/products/92124/Int … o-2_00-GHz
so I couldn't figure out if they are like Broadwell or Skylake. From error messages when running the 4.8 kernel, I know that the current firmware packages in jessie-backports are missing some firmware for 7th generation Intel chips such as Kabylake coming out now (Skylake is 6th generation, as in an i5-6200U)
