However, several days following nVidia's fix/update
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-96/+bug/626974/comments/71)
and no action from Ubuntu.

Loading the driver manually will cause it to break with kernel updates.
The driver needs to be fixed in Ubuntu so that those of us with older
nVidia cards can upgrade/install properly.
