tried manual install of nvidia current driver:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:upubuntu-com/nvidia


sudo apt-get update


sudo apt-get install nvidia-current

and when running NVIDIA x server settings a dialog says to run sudo 
invidia-xconfig, which I did, then rebooted.
The display is still low res default driver. Nvidia driver is not running.
See jockey.log attached.
