I've tried several methods so far - Envy, and the drivers directly from Nvidia using guides such as this.
Using the method in the linked article, I get dumped to low graphics mode after restarting GDM.
The other issue is that my fan speed's locked at 100%, but I imagine it will become adaptive once the driver's running.
Starting to wish I'd replaced my dead 8800 GTS 320 with a card of similar vintage.
