This is Nvidia GeForce7025 using nvidia-legacy-304xx-driver using the 
4.8.0-2 kernel because it's the only thing I've found to work.

I'm also using an Intel desktop with ATI Radeon 9550 graphics and an 
Intel Laptop with Intel 965 graphics and this my main desktop is Nvidia 
with Nvidia GeForce7025 graphics. They all have some kind of problem 
with Sid/testing and Stretch Plasma.  They all have many systems 
installed and are ready to test suggestions.
