[Bug 1203024] [NEW] 'Install 3rd party software' does not install proper drivers for Nvidia Geforce GTX 580

[Asbjørn Thegler]

Public bug reported:

To run the installer on a machine with an Nvidia Geforce GTX 580
graphics card it is necessary to use the 'nomodeset'-option. After
installation, Unity runs slowly and in a very low resolution. This can
be fixed by installing the nvidia-current package.

I asked on the ubiquity irc chat about this, and the response was that
this is a bug, hence this bug report.
