Thanks for the help, Sitsofe. The Restricted Drivers Manager does not see my Nvidia drivers at all. >From before I remember that it only shows up if I have selected "nvidia" in xorg.conf - when using the open source nv driver it does not show up as available but disabled - it doesn't show at all. This I've always found weird.
