After trying (manually installed nvidia-experimental-310 because jockey offers nothing on this system with this card), I get no desktop.
Jockey does not offer any drivers for this card. With Nouveau, compiz and software rendering are not supported: ubuntu@201201-10399:~$ /usr/lib/nux/unity_support_test -c -p OpenGL vendor string: VMware, Inc.
