I installed pure Ubuntu 13.04 and tried to install the restricted driver,but it became yellow-screen after reboot.
I found this question: Ubuntu 13.04 - installation Nvidia driver

I do in this way:

apt-get remove nvidia*
apt-get install build-essential linux-source linux-headers-`uname -r`
apt-get install  nvidia-current
depmod -a
depmod -a
modprobe nvidia_current

but it says:

FATAL: Module nvidia_current not found.

so I typed

modprobe nvidia_304
lsmod

which shows, that nvidia is loaded, but when I ran

/etc/init.d/lightdm restart

and logged in, I can only see the background!
Then I ran

nvidia-xconfig reboot

and when it's rebooted, the resolution became small (small? perhaps bad English), and I can still see the background only. What can I do?

Edit:

$ sudo nvidia-settings
ERROR: The control display is undefined; please run `nvidia-settings --help` for usage information.

You should be using nvidia-173, FX5200 is not supported for nvidia-current
