Thanks for replies.

I have now tried the Nouveau driver, and Loch works.

Unfortunately I experience quite a lot of other problems with the nouveau driver. When booting with the nouveau driver I end up with a black screen, I need to use the acpi=off linux boot parameter to not get a black screen, but then I am not able to choose a higher screen resolution. This was the reason I changed to the propietary driver in the first place. This makes the nouveau driver not much of an option unless I can solve this problem, but I guess that is outside the scope of this list.

Anyway, it then seems like my loch-problem is somehow related to the propietary nvidia driver.

Best regards

Thanks for the thorough bug report. Putting this email in a debian bugreport is
probably a good idea in case others come across the same problem.

I don't actually have stretch installed yet on hardware with nvidia
GPU - but I guess it's time that I tried it, so I'll upgrade and see
if I can reproduce. I use the nouveau drivers so may not be able to
reproduce if it's actually to do with the binary drivers. I would
certainly try the noveau driver and see if it still happens to you or
not.
