At least, Debian folks are maintaining that, not dependent on Nvidia to
maintain for legacy devices they would rather forget.
As I have already reported, the Debian free driver(Nouveau) freezes the
system with colorful squiggly lines and I have to push and hold the
power button to turn the computer off and then repair the file system.
I'm waiting to hear from upstream for suggestions on what I may test to
help fix the plasma nvidia problem. Downgrading to Jessie-backports
works, but cause package management problems. I wonder if backporting
the free driver would work too.
