This is expected. None of the software you listed supports your GPU.

With the latest released kernel (4.10), you can easily write a patch that will
add support. The reason it has not been integrated is that I believe we're
still waiting for a blob mmiotrace (and I don't appear to remember the password
for the mmio.dumps at gmail.com account to check - others do though) to make sure
that there are no odd differences in setup.

An example of such a patch is available at
https://www.spinics.net/lists/dri-devel/msg132664.html .

However this won't get you acceleration - just modesetting. If you want
acceleration, you also need the drm-next tree (targeted at Linux 4.12) as well
as the associated firmware from nvidia.

Then you'd need a version of xf86-video-nouveau that supports GP10x - the
current codebase doesn't, but it should, again, be a trivial patch, just needs
testing.

You'll likely also need mesa from git, as the 17.0 release doesn't have some of
the relevant logic.

[Long story short - it's not quite there yet.]
