Hi folks,
II am trying to install an old graphic card, a GT730.
Proprietary drivers are no longer compatible with the latest kernel.
So I tried the nouveau drivers on my Ubuntu LTS without success.
When the nouveau driver loads, the screen turns off/disconnected and stay black.
When modeset=0, there is obviously no 3D acceleration.
I also tried several bootable distributions without success
- ubuntu 25.10
- fedora
I am probably missing some configuration.
—— when nouveau loads / but screen turn off.
Graphics:
