As for the wrongly detected driver version, can someone with an affected NVidia system please attach /var/log/jockey.log after the failed install? It should be in the target system, i. e. after reboot, not in the live environment. It would also be helpful if you could give me the output of jockey-text --list on that system.

I have a sense that it is selecting -173 because it's the last thing in the list. However I'm not spotting in the code where exactly that list might be.
