In reference to bug #1070427. I had no internet-connection (either wifi or cabel) during the installation. I can make a new test of the entire installment if required. Just ask ;-)

Status in “nvidia-graphics-drivers” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: hello, I have made two (2) separate installations of 64bit Ubuntu 12.10 on this laptop. The installation completes correctly and the Nouveau-driver works pretty well and shows correct Unity-desktop. But if I activate the NVIDIA-driver, the desktop displays only a low-resolution wallpaper, without Unity-desktop or icons. The desktop is missing. I have tried both the stable NVIDIA and the experimental driver. Both fails. I have activated the driver via [Additional Drivers] page on software-properties-gtk dialog. Also did the same from command line. See the attachment (log file).
