nvidia 470 driver installed although device not supported

[Brian Murray]

I was installing a Noble daily build and after rebooting I did not receive any graphical display. In my Xorg log file I saw:

[ 12.880] (EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): The NVIDIA GPU at PCI:5:0:0 is not supported by the 470.239.06
[ 12.880] (EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): NVIDIA driver.
[ 12.880] (EE) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA graphics device!
[ 12.880] (EE) NVIDIA(G0): Failing initialization of X screen

The device is:
