That really is an nVidia and so using the 'nv' driver should work.
You can also try nvidia driver if you want to have a fancy desktop with
3D capabilities. The link below will help you to install that non-free
driver:

Determine what resolution your monitor can support and then
try this:
$ sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg
The default installation probably installed the 'vesa' driver. That
is a generic driver that generally always works but has limited
resolution. Select the 'nv' driver. Select additional higher
resolutions as appropriate for your monitor.
After reconfiguring this should write a new /etc/X11/xorg.conf file.
You can verify that the new 'nv' driver is listed there:
$ grep Driver /etc/X11/xorg.conf
