Public bug reported:
After experiencing display errors with 352 (default at install), I used
additional drivers to test the 340 driver.
After reboot, the screen resolution was maximum 800 x 600. After
reverting back to 352, remained at 800 x 600.
Normal/expected screen resolution is 2560 x 1600.
Running sudo nvidia-xconfig made no difference.
Running gksudo nvidia-settings presented and unrecognizable nivida-
settngs screen.
Copying a working xorg.conf file from another dist on this computer
changed the resolution to 1280 × 960
