nvidia-173 on Ubuntu/Kubuntu 18.04
I have an old 'Nvidia Quadro FX 1300' which works with full specs in MS Windows Vista/7.
Since there is no recent posts related to this subject, I shall reopen the case.
I tried to use this graphics card with Ubuntu/Kubuntu 18.04, with mediocre success.
Some windows appears with black screens on it and it is impossible to use the basic capabilities that an average VGA card should give.
I would be very glad if it would function as a simple VGA card.
The following command:
sudo apt-get install nvidia-173
gives me as a final message the follows:
Unable to locate package nvidia-173
According to this, I ask: Is there a way to use this graphics card at least as a simple VGA card?
Thanks in advance.

The driver is not in the Graphics Drivers PPA nor is it in the standard Repos that come enabled. You will have to download the driver from nvidia.com/Download/driverResults.aspx/71303/en-us
