This is so silly - The file /etc/X11/xorg.conf is write protected for a user and the process doing the update requires that the file ALREADY exist before the update. So we have to manually remember to create it before using the nvidia tool. Must drive novices crazy. -- nvidia-settings crashes

I have just updated (and rebooted just to be sure). The menu entry: System-Administration-NVIDIA X Server Settings does not ask for a super-user pasword. So consequently it can't write to /etc/X11/xorg.conf. This will greatly confuse non-technical users and there is no sensible message to explain
