New Nvidia graphics driver not installing properly

[kushykush]

Binary package hint: gnome-app-install

Installed the new nvidia graphic driver provided in available software packages. But the driver has not installed properly. I received an error and the note that only parts of it were installed. I tried to uninstall this driver and use the regular or older version of the same. However, all this very confusing to a newbie.

When I restarted last night, this problem was corrected automatically. I compliment the Ubuntu developers for squishing such bugs so efficiently. Thanks!
