Why are you staying with Debian 6 Squeeze?

Squeeze had benefited from Long Term Support (LTS) until the end of February 2016.

Debian 6.0 has been superseded by Debian 7.0 (wheezy).

<Why are you staying with Debian 6 Squeeze?>

are you on drugs?

Well--you are using Stretch, that's obvious--but why is "scratch" prominent in the thread title, then?

I think arochester confused gcc-6.3 with Debian 6.3 Squeeze in your output...

By the way, "apt show <package>" will only show what's available to your system in the repo. It does not mean you have nvdia-driver installed, or if installed, you managed to build the kernel modules successfully. We can get a better idea of your current graphics driver situation quickly if you install inxi and post the output of

Simply too much time with DJ stuff with the 80s recently, plus me being unfortunately "me". Sorry.

And yet you cop a friggin' boatload of attitude when someone is unable to translate your mangled word salad... (Are you on drugs? Or is this a congenital thing?)

Gawd but this place has become abysmal. Vacations no longer help.
