System Info: Ubuntu 14.04.2
Linux 3.13.0-49-generic #83-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 10 20:11:33 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Nvidia Card: GeForce GTX 860M
lspci lists the Card as "3D Controller". Only after adding the xorg-edgers PPA the "Additional Drivers" programs offers some nvidia drivers for installation. However the card is only recognized as an "Unknown NVIDIA Device".
Other symptoms:
Using the driver nvidia-346.59 after CUDA 7.0 installation causes that the system sometimes hangs on boot and if it does not hang, the system boots into a black screen (the VT tty 1 - 6 are available and the login "drums" sound can be heard)
