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.
Did you miss that the _preferred_ FOSS video driver in Sid, modesetting, is integrated into the xerver and you haven't tried it? It might be your solution. If you purge nouveau and nvidia drivers modesetting should be used automatically unless your gfxchip is outside support scope. I don't know whether there actually has been an announcement for NVidia, but NAICT it did happen for Intel: http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Fedora-Xorg-Intel-DDX-Switch http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=intel-modesetting-2017&num=1 http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Ubuntu-Debian-Abandon-Intel-DDX
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.
