1) I have installed driver 304.123 from Nvidia following the
instructions provided at

http://askubuntu.com/questions/451221/ubuntu-14-04-install-nvidia-driver

2) I got the following error message:

The distribution-provided pre-install script failed!  Continue
installation anyway?

I chose 'Yes' and the installation process continued and finished,
apparently, successfully.

3) I sent the log file (same file I attach here) to Nvidia Customer Care
support team, and I'm waiting for their feedback now.

4) I was able to change my screen resolution (run gksudo nvidia-
settings, because changing my screen resolution requires root
privileges), so 304.123 seems to solve the issue. If Nvidia technicians
confirm that everything is ok, I think 304.123 should be made available
for Trusty, so any user who need it could install it with the
'Additional Drivers' wizard.

It's all for now.
