Good morning I can’t install the GeForce 730 drivers on linux mint, I tried to install from driver manager both the recommended proprietary 340 driver and the 390 but on reboot before login the screen stays black with a dash and dot in the upper left corner and freezes. I tried to install the nvidia .run file but the terminal tells me it is not supported. Can you help me install the drivers?
The 470 series of drivers should have support for the GT 730 as well
Maybe try these?
Please post the output of
sudo lspci -nn -d 10de:*
to check which driver is needed.
This is the output

It’s a Fermi based gpu so the 390 driver has to be used. Please install it using the driver manager, then run nvidia-bug-report.sh as root and attach the resulting nvidia-bug-report.log.gz file to your post.
I tried but the terminal gives me the output that it is not supported.
Don’t use the runfile installer of legacy drivers, those won’t compile on recent kernels.
He says it is nonexistent.
nvidia-bug-report.sh will now collect information about your
system and create the file ‘nvidia-bug-report.log.gz’ in the current
directory. It may take several seconds to run. In some
cases, it may hang trying to capture data generated dynamically
by the Linux kernel and/or the NVIDIA kernel module. While
the bug report log file will be incomplete if this happens, it
may still contain enough data to diagnose your problem.
Please include the ‘nvidia-bug-report.log.gz’ log file when reporting
your bug via the NVIDIA Linux forum (see devtalk.nvidia.com)
or by sending email to ‘linux-bugs@nvidia.com’.

I guess the gpu might be broken.
I think it is impossible that it is broken. In the pc I have an integrated video card that does not work and the geforce video card.I have the pc in dual boot with windows and on windows it works properly
I’m having the same issue on nixos
sudo lspci -nn -d 10de:*

someone please show a fix
I’m broke. I wanna use this GPU with the legacy driver on linux
T-T
What kernel are you on ? most distro’s requires to downgrade to kernel 5.15 in order to install the legacy 390.xx driver.
can I downgrade my kernel and then use that driver?
That’s true.
There’s another solution : if all this did not work, simply get back to older 5.15.0.xxx kernels and install ubuntu 22.04 LTS again. This Nvidia card, isn’t supported anymore and Nvidia don’t provide drivers anymore except the 390.xxx old driver. In Linux, there are Nouveau2 drivers, but you won’t have needed accelerations, and you won’t be able to play games without “lag” and “tearing”. After doing this (and supress newer kernels), you will be able to use Nvidia private driver again with all acceleration, with the program Nvidia-settings enabled. Once you installed the old 5.15.0.134 kernel again (not 6.x.xxx series), you have to go to “other drivers”, and choose the private Nvidia driver for Nvidia geforce gt 730, with 390.xxx package. You click on it, wait for the install to complete, and you will see the nvidia-settings icon appear in “activities”, and you are all set.
