I tried the Restricted Drivers tool but when I clicked on the NVIDIA 
accelerated graphics driver it told me that it could not install 
nvidia-glx-new.  So I ran it manually and then rebooted.
Solving the problem was easy for me.  I uninstalled nvidia-glx-new, ran 
dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and when back at the GUI, grabbed the drivers 
straight from NVidia's website and that worked just fine.
BUT, installing nvidia-glx-new should have taken care of everything and not 
messed everything up.  A less Linux savy user would have either needed to 
reinstall or would just dump Ubuntu all together for not working right.
