Hey all,
I’m running a DIY-built server on a J5040-ITX Link to the manual (PDF-Download), which features a PCIe x1 slot which I’d like to utilize with a graphics card. I found the Nvidia GT 730 2 GB which would fit, but I’m unsure, if it…
… works with nouveau, as I’m unable to find the GT 730, only the GT 730M in the list of codenames.
… if OMV (currently running OMV 7, going to upgrade to OMV 8 soonish) aka. Debian 12 (or 13, depends on OMV version) supports the proprietary driver.
Any ideas or recommendations?
You may be out of luck, but doesn’t that board have onboard VGA graphics which you can use?
OMV is a web page dashboard and there’s SSH. What is the usecase for a GPU I wondered?
It has, and I use this setup for years already. Thought about tinkering a bit, y’know? :-)
A good use case for GPU on OMV is jellyfin transcoding.

Try for a card with NVENC support.
P400 looks like you’d need a notched slot, tho.

Oh yes!
