Yes, I was reinstalling nvidia-current and libgl1-mesa-glx. The script
looks good, but doesn't work for me. The intel side works fine but on
the nvidia side the nvidia driver bombs out due to a lack of
xorg.conf. Ubuntu doesn't create one in recent releases. or I end up
in the nouveau driver as the nvidia driver somehow didn't get loaded.

I'll play a bit more, but the nvidia driver is a very antisocial
beast.
