Works for me on "normal" stretch. Though I didn't yet reboot for the latest
kernel upgrade which causes Java stuff to break.

See e.g. also https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=865303

Do you have any "interesting" (Java) extensions installed or was this a clean
system? I ask because you are french and probably also have installed the
questionable extension?

Does downgrading the kernel from security to that one in stable (or
upgrading it to the kernel from 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=865303#94 work?

Oh my, you installed a fresh system and STILL installed i386? What for?
"Of course" the new kernel packaged linked above have only _amd64 built....
