kernel 4.7.

Can the kernel-module be built? I suggest, to use the *-dkms stuff for 
building. If this does not work, you may try the drivers from the nvidia site 
directly. Before installiing this, get rid of all nvidia packages (i.e. apt-
get --purge remove nvidia-*). Check before saying "y", that no other unwanted 
packages are iremoved.

Hope this helps. If NOT, then you might try to run the nouveau driver. It is 
running fine, however, I prefer the proprietrary one, as I need it for my 
flightsim (X-Plane).
