I guess Hans was right, after all. This is what Debian asked to do
Version 304.137 (legacy GPUs)
For support of GeForce 6 series and GeForce 7 series GPUs (supported
devices
<http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/304.137/README/supportedchips.html>).
1.
Add "contrib" and "non-free" components to /etc/apt/sources.list,
for example:
# Debian 9 "Stretch"
deb http://deb.debian.org/debian/ stretch main contrib non-free
2. Update the list of available packages. Install the appropriate
NVIDIA driver package:
# apt install nvidia-legacy-304xx-driver
DKMS will build the nvidia module for your system, via the
nvidia-legacy-304xx-kernel-dkms
<https://packages.debian.org/nvidia-legacy-304xx-kernel-dkms> package.
After, create an Xorg server configuration file
<https://wiki.debian.org/NvidiaGraphicsDrivers#configure> and then
restart your system to enable the nouveau blacklist.
Except when you click on the DKMS link, there's no Buster package there.
I give up, except if I'm wrong with how I understand things.
Thanks to all, especially Hans, with whose help I could have saved a ton
of time.
