Is this a Quadro NVS 280 PCI-E board carried over from a Ultra 20?
Ultra 20 M2 should have shipped with Quadro NVS 285.

Not including the NVIDIA graphics driver in the miniroot was not an
accidental oversight. The size of the driver would have made inclusion
in the miniroot very difficult. There was a lot of work done to autoconfig
to improve graphical installation for all graphics cards, including NVIDIA.
Please provide the part number on the graphics card, the model number
of the 24" monitor (there are several versions) and was this using
a VGA or DVI cable. We will look at this combination.
