    Ubuntu's sysinfo program often fails to detect the graphics card. Unless you are having issues with the graphics, do not worry about that.

    It would be better to look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log to diagnose problems.

    Once you are using nvidia's driver, use nvidia tools, open nvidia-settings (search for it in dash) and see if that has correct info.

    edit: In case you haven't yet, press ctrl+alt+t and drag and drop Temujin's command into the terminal window that appears.

    Did you run the command posted by Temujin?

    So you installed nvidia current, to get driver information look at nvidia-settings.

    Press the super (windows) key, type nvidia you should see something called nvidia x server settings, open it, that will give you driver information.
