I've been trying (unsuccessfully) to get the latest Nvidia driver installed and I think I've found the problem.  The nvidia-driver and nvidia-settings are at v375.82 in jessie-backports contrib while nvidia-xconfig is at v340.46 in jessie contrib.  There is a version of nvidia-xconfig in ascii contrib that is at v375.26.  Are these version incompatible?

I'm unable to use the nvidia driver.  Runing nvidia-settings tells me to run nvidia-xconfig.  Either of the above versions of n*-xconfig just kicks me out of X and I have to purge X and reinstall to get back to a graphical environment.

So at the moment, I'm suck at a low resolution screen.  Any ideas?
