I have one of these cards, which is apparently an NVidia GT 730 board manufactured by a company that is well known in China but not outside. The PCI id (10de:1287) is listed in the documentation as supported by NVidia's driver version 470, but after installing that driver I get the following error in my system journal, along with very long bootup times (2m+), after which my system seems to be running using the nouveau driver.

I'm on KUbuntu 24.04 and am using legacy boot already, not UEFI, so disabling secure boot isn't going to help. Any other suggestions how to get this working? Or am I stuck with using nouveau?
