Bug Description

If the nvidia post release updates driver is installed, trying to activate the 310 experimental nvidia blob will fail. However, the driver *does* get installed and can be used. The nvidia-settings-experimental-310 fails to install though.

Fixing this requires that the nvidia-settings-updates package be removed first and then installing the nvidia-settings-experimental-310 package.
