I created a pull request with the update to version 390 and changing the
version 340 driver so it can be used (with some hassle) should someone
need it:
https://github.com/OpenIndiana/oi-userland/pull/5337. Though, I am not
sure the latter works...
If someone is willing to test, I am happy to provide packages for local
installation.

That for one and the last Laptop that had an nvidia Graphics card
without an intel one was my HP Probook from 2005 with 1GB RAM. Where the
Graphics card is so old it is not even supported with the 340 driver.
All later ones have Intel Graphics (Or AMD) in the SoC as intel
successfully pushed everybody out of the market.
Laptops with Nvidia graphics Only after 2008 are rare Gaming Market
devices. With at least a 2000 Euro price tag. Considering our absolute
null compatibility with games atm (Although i've just heard of a
possible wine port?)
My conclusion still stays firmly with upgrading to 390 by default. And
add instructions as Stefan described.

Hi Michal
Anything as old as an NVIDIA GeForce 220 so slow imho that not many
people sell these online anymore. Considering that you can get a cheap
current low end graphics card for below 100Euro it is not a stretch to
say that we exchange the 340 driver with 390.
I tend to agree but still this might be a problem for integrated
systems like laptops, where card replacement is not an option. But
luckily I guess nvidia GPU wasn't a thing in this field before Optimus?
The older Laptops have legacy boot and a VESA desktop or at least a
working console.
So along with a wiki article describing how to enable a 340 version the
user has a very good chance to get a good working X desktop.
Just my 2c,
Stephan
