[Bug 568016] [NEW] Cannot use Nvidia driver with nvidia-current!

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nvidia-current

Number #1: I cannot install nvidia with Jockey! Nothing is listed!

Thus, I install with Synaptic. And Synaptic claims it's successful.
Thus, I now reboot.

Now, I open up nvidia-settings and this is what I get:

You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.  Please edit your X
configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the
X server.

Then I see this with glxinfo:
