I have no experience with that.

There are other nvidia users with the same problem.

They report it with version 290.06. So we know it's an nvidia
issue. Apparently nvidia have a bug id for it.
I had a running system with 290.06. I should be able to get back to
this. That's where things become a Debian issue. I suspect my
script leaves something out, like recompiling a module with m-a
(where I don't see an option to do that).
I wish I could buy a laptop with all open source drivers. With
nvidia I am going through problems every couple of months with
some update or other.
Thanks and cheers,
