Not all typical online listings report that particular card, although I've
found one that notes the Quadro M620 is 1st generation Maxwell-series GPU
built on the GM107 architecture.

GM107 is reasonably well supported for basic bring up on nouveau. So
provided you are using a new enough Linux kernel (probably 4.11+) then you
should at least be able to bring up a display and run at the lowest power
state. However, there are certain use-cases, such as OpenCL / CUDA compute
that nouveau currently does not provide.

What is the exact problem you are having where the nouveau driver is not
recognising your graphics card?

A copy of your dmesg output may be helpful.
