From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This card requires legacy drivers. Getting this to work is going to be a pain and a half in the rear. I've done it before.
Basically, what you need to do is this:
Google how to do each of these steps, since they are a bit too complicated to get into it here, also they are dependant on the Linux distro you chose.
Btw: you will be losing frames. Support for legacy Nvidia GPUs isn't great at all.
Thanks👾 :)
Buying a modern cheap low end card might give you the same or better framerate tha~t~n this legacy card.
And steer away from Nvidia.
Btw, apparently there are multiple types of 730. Some are supported by the 470 driver, some not. If yours is not, try the 390 driver.
