Is firmware-misc-nonfree installed? https://wiki.debian.org/NewInStretch (at the bottom): Try 'apt install xserver-xorg-legacy'. Whether that is simply about setuid or more I haven't figured out, and likewise, how Stretch decides whether to use the intel or the modeset driver. Use of the intel driver can be forced (tested here on i965Q) by creating: File: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-use-intel-gfx-driver.conf Containing: Section "Device" Identifier "somestring" Driver "intel" EndSection It may or may not need to include any of the following if you experience visible disruption: Option "AccelMethod" "sna" Option "AccelMethod" "uxa" Option "TearFree" "true" -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
