Confirmed GT 520. But reboot after deactivating and activating the
driver again, and although it reports the same thing, it appears to be
using the proprietary driver. So far so good, hope this thing lasts.

Bug description:
  I'm running Unity without major issues and apparently using the nvidia
  proprietary current driver, but in System Settings -> Hardware ->
  Additional driver the nvidia driver shows as activated but not being
  used.

  I'm attaching xorg.conf, I also use a dual monitor setup but I think
  this is not relevant.
