I've looked on the internet, even asked on Ubuntu forums, no one knows.
I thought "nvidia-updates" will auto-update to new driver, but normal "nvidia" driver did that too, so...
I have installed "nvidia-331" driver, the tested, recommended one. Then like 2 days ago, updater came with update, it wanted to update the driver to UNTESTED version 340.76 for some reason, which is a legacy driver (according to NVIDIA site). So I have purged the driver and installed the new tested one manually (346.87 or something like that)
It has GT520M GPU. And why would the Ubuntu updater wanted to update non-legacy TESTED driver to legacy NON-TESTED driver...?
Makes the whole NVIDIA update process kinda useless. I guess it's better to just completely uninstall the old one, and manually install the new one.
