Driver for GeForce 210 under Linux

Graphics / Linux Linux

I have a system with an Nvidia card identified as GT218 [GeForce 210]. My understanding is that, under Linux, one would have to use the Nvidia driver 304.108 at least that’s what I get from Nvidia’s site when searching for drivers for this hardware. The thing is, I am about to upgrade this system so it will be running the Linux kernel version 5.15.38. Would somebody in this forum happen to know for sure whether the Nvidia driver above will build for a 5.15.38 kernel?

The latest driver version, which supports your GPU is 340.108 and that was released on 2019. That driver will not support 5.15, you will have to use the open source nouveau driver.

OK, thanks.
