Title:
  wrong nvidia driver installed on restricted-driver activation

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  After installing the restricted nvidia-drivers and rebooting the
  driver would fail to load and Ubuntu would revert to the failsafe
  graphics.

  In synaptic I saw Ubuntu installed nvidia-current (version 195.36.15
  ...) but mixed a few different versions of other packages with it
  (nvidia-173-modaliases, nvidia-glx-173)

  I tried installing the correct packages (nvidia-glx-185 and such
  (which is version 195.36.15; very confusing))

  Now the driver says it's "enabled but not in use".

  I thought about changing the xorg.conf file myself, but I haven't had
  to open one in a year or so and now it appears an xorg.conf file is no
  longer necessary.
