I'm thrilled to report that I'm back in Plasma and it is behaving itself again (so far) after doing the latest full-upgrade. As for non-debian drivers, I don't have any. The worst I've done is include non-free firmware for my NIC. Despite my earlier success with Gnome Flashback, it took to locking up when I tried to bring the computer back after the screen saver kicked in. Turning off the suspend mode cured that. I note that under KDE, I actually have just been locking the screen. Hopefully whatever nastiness caused me two days of pain using Gnome Flashback has been resolved.
