<This was my report for the 4.8.0-2 kernel> And it still works.
I updated Sid/testing a couple days ago and retested current drivers, 
"nouveau" is working with sddm okay but froze with plasma(colorful 
lighting bolts).  Current nvidia-legacy-304xx is working with XRender 
and compositing enabled and I'm good with that, tested on Stretch too, 
now I can do clean upgrades and I'm happy. Thank you Debian!

linux-image-4.9.0-1-amd64 is behaving like image-4.8 used to behave 
nouveau froze with plasma(colorful lighting bolts).  Debian's 
nvidia-legacy-304xx-driver is freezing with plasma start.

On first boot plasma loaded the vga driver giving me the wrong screen 
size and did not load the installed nvidia driver at all. Booting 
linux-image-4.9.0-1-amd64 and reinstalling nvidia-legacy-304xx-driver 
crashed plasma and so did nouveau. I'm back to using 
nvidia-legacy-304xx-driver and linux-image-4.8.0-2-amd64 with XRender 
and compositing enabled.
