Trying to upgrade gives some dependency problems:
michael@quad:~/download$ sudo aptitude install nvidia-331
The following NEW packages will be installed:
bbswitch-dkms{a} libcuda1-331{a} nvidia-331{b} nvidia-libopencl1-331{ab}
nvidia-opencl-icd-331{a} nvidia-prime{a}
0 packages upgraded, 6 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Need to get 36,1 MB of archives. After unpacking 158 MB will be used.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
ocl-icd-libopencl1 : Conflicts: libopencl1 which is a virtual package.
nvidia-libopencl1-331 : Conflicts: libopencl1 which is a virtual package.
nvidia-304-updates : Conflicts: xorg-driver-binary which is a virtual package.
nvidia-331 : Conflicts: xorg-driver-binary which is a virtual package.
The following actions will resolve these dependencies:
Remove the following packages:
1) nvidia-304-updates
2) nvidia-current-updates
Keep the following packages at their current version:
3) nvidia-libopencl1-331 [Not Installed]
Leave the following dependencies unresolved:
4) nvidia-331 recommends nvidia-libopencl1-331
Accept this solution? [Y/n/q/?]
My question: Is it a good idea to leave that dependency unresolved?

Title:
After upgrading to 14.04, nvidia-settings crashes with "BadValue" X
Window System error
Status in “nvidia-settings” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
After upgrading to 14.04 the screen resolution is not as I want and
changing with nvidia-settings is not possible, because the program
crashes when applying new settings.
michael@quad:~$ nvidia-settings
ERROR: Error querying target relations
The program 'nvidia-settings' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation)'.
(Details: serial 738 error_code 2 request_code 158 minor_code 25)
(Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)

The crash occurs when using the "Apply" button.
