That's an older Nvidia card and the latest drivers which nvidia-driver 
points at don't support it.  You'll need to install the 340 version 
(340.96 is the latest) of the driver in order for that card to work.

There's most likely a package for the older version, in the Ubuntus it's 
called nvidia-340
