Your Comment Doesn’t Help brother
I doubt you do, that’s why the comment. It is meant to be helpful and educate: Legacy drivers no longer work with kernel 6.12 and up.
So, therefore, what is your proposal? “Devs do something” isn’t going to happen: What’s the “something”? Code drivers for NVidia hardware? That is not what the TrueNAS devs do or should be focused on.
Therefore, if you want drivers for legacy NVidia hardware on kernel 6.12 and newer, you need to create them. Or find a group of people who feel similarly and create them together. Be the change you want to see.
Once drivers exist that can drive legacy NVidia on modern Linux, then TrueNAS devs could integrate those.
Right now you’re asking them to create them for you; or to integrate something imaginary. Neither is going to have a ton of success.

You’ve been told twice now that the legacy driver is not supported by the linux kernel truenas uses. There is NOTHING iX can do about it. If you want legacy driver support ask the linux kernel devs or nvidia to make it happen. It is not a truenas problem.
Dude if you can’t help just ignore it… Why are you even replying to me?.
Yes I appreciate a reply from Truenas team ot from you…
Sorry dude, Ur reply is just not helping… And all those things u told I already know
So you say you know that drivers that can drive old NVidia hardware and also work in current Linux and thus TrueNAS do not exist.
So if you truly know this, what are you asking of TrueNAS devs? You need to find a group of enthusiasts that want to add nvidia legacy support to the FOSS drivers and pitch in there.
Then after that is done and upstreamed, only then does “please offer these Nvidia FOSS drivers we just created, on TrueNAS” become a reasonable ask.
You are still not helping dude. Please don’t wast time
