I'm trying to install Ubuntu 12.04 on 4 machines, none of which are recognizing the Nvidia graphics cards. I've tried installing the proprietary versions of the drivers from the "additional drivers" in system settings and also this http://askubuntu.com/questions/136045/ubuntu-12-04-wont-recognize-my-graphics-driver
Neither of which got any of the systems to recognize the graphics cards. Here is the output suggested in this post http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=11949675&postcount=26
