What is the output of:
$ ubuntu-drivers list
?
We use Modaliases stanza on the package to figure out if your hardware needs it.
Could you also do:
$ lspci
And then lookup modalias for your card in:
$ cat /sys/devices/pci*/*$(DEVICE)/modalias

Title:
'Install 3rd party software' does not install proper drivers for
Nvidia Geforce GTX 580
Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Status in “ubiquity” package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
To run the installer on a machine with an Nvidia Geforce GTX 580
graphics card it is necessary to use the 'nomodeset'-option. After
installation, Unity runs slowly and in a very low resolution. This can
be fixed by installing the nvidia-current package.
I asked on the ubiquity irc chat about this, and the response was that
this is a bug, hence this bug report.
