time I installed it I downloaded the driver from NVIDIA web site.
I was able to install it and it worked well, but updates started
bothering me. Maybe I should have tried a Debian repo, but I did
not and I have no recollection of the reason.
Anyway, I was trying to install it now using debian repos (deb
http://deb.debian.org/debian/ buster main non-free), as you
suggested, and I got this. Any suggestion?
# nvidia-detect
Detected NVIDIA GPUs:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation GF119

Checking card: NVIDIA Corporation GF119 [NVS 310] (rev a1)
Your card is only supported up to the 390 legacy drivers series.
It is recommended to install the
nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver
package.
# apt-get install nvidia-legacy-390xx-driver

E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.
Package "nvidia-installer-cleanup" is in "contrib" section, so you
have to add it too. Don't forget to invoke "apt update" after that.
