After reading other various bits of advice I've tried:
sudo mkdir /usr/lib32
sudo touch /usr/lib32/libGL.so.1
sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx-new

(which seemed to work)

And:
sudo apt-get install envyng-core
envyng -t
(select 1 and follow instructions)

Reboot led monitor to produce an 'input not supported' message. I looked at 
xorg.conf and commented out the line:
Option          "AddARGBGLXVisuals"             "True"
This got me a display but it was back to the very low resolution one. 
System->Administration->NVidia XServer Settings installed and works but utterly 
unusable in very low resolution offered (e.g. clicking one area highlights a 
different area), but resetting xorg.conf to working basic settings means the 
nvidia settings just throws up information that the nvidia driver isn't being 
used and suggests nvidia-xconfig. (Running that, needless to say, leads to an 
unusably low resolution.)

Have also tried manually editing xorg.conf, but not getting beyond the
low resolution problem despite explicit modelines - example file
attached.
