Public bug reported:

 package nvidia-304 304.88-0ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade:
subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status
1

I get these errors when trying to install or remove any of the nvidia
listed drivers. Since I cannot remove the driver I have to reinstalll to
get it gone. This would be my 5'th time reinstalling. I have tried all
the drivers. If there is a better way to remove the driver please let me
know so I can help test.

I am running a Dell XPS L701x
VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF106M [GeForce GT 445M] 

I really need to run the Nvidia driver. Nouveau does not cut it and
causes the laptop to run VERY hot. Please let me know if I need to
provide any more info.
