It looks like the nvidia driver had failed to install, which usually
happens because it failed to build with dkms.  Typically in these
situations, a make.log file is produced somewhere like
/var/lib/dkms/*/*/build/make.log.  (ubuntu-bug looks for a file there
and attaches it if it exists... so I gather no such file was present in
this instance.)

See if you can reinstall nvidia-graphics-drivers again and get it to
produce the make.log file there.

If installing it via jockey doesn't produce a make.log somewhere, then
try installing nvidia manually:

  sudo apt-get install nvidia-graphics-drivers

In this case it ought to spit out error messages to the console.
