Bug description:
I have a Dell Laptop with a NVS 5200M (0DFC) and wondered why ubuntu-
drivers recommend the nvidia-driver-435 (and also the wrong driver
430). It won't work with these drivers.

I found the modalias in the packages nvidia-driver-435 and also in the
package of the nvidia-driver-430. In the Nvidia READMEs you can find
that the NVS 5200M (0DFC) is only supported up to 390.
I opened an issue on https://github.com/tseliot/nvidia-graphics-
drivers/issues/36 and tseliot told me it could be a parsing problem of
the Nvidia READMEs.
