I built a machine in Oct 2024 that uses a Gigabyte Z590 AORUS
Elite AX MB. Because my monitor is high resolution, I had to lower
resolution to the point it became useful. In January the
motherboard video chip died and I was forced to resort to use of a
video card, a Gigabyte GV-N1030D4-2GL GeForce GT 1030 Low Profile D4
2G.

When I booted, I got video, but too low in resolution to be of use.
I suspected I needed a driver to get access to a range of resolutions.
Is nvidia driver installed in Devuan by default. Or must I install
firmware-nvideo-graphics?

# lsmod
...
video 81920 1 nouveau

I cannot run xerandr or xeyes:

# xeyes
Error: Can't open display: 0,0


# Export DISPLAY: 0.0

# echo $DISPLAY
0.0

# eyes
Error: Can't open display 0.0
