Nvidia failed to initialize Nvidia kernel module

Solution:
    1. Remove all concerning "nvidia":
    $ sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep nvidia | grep -v deinstall | awk '{print $1}' | xargs sudo apt-get remove

    2. Check it:
    $ sudo dpkg --get-selections | grep nvidia | grep -v deinstall

    3. Install only needed packages:
    $ sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-185

    4. Load module nvidia and check it:
    $
    sudo modprobe nvidia
    $ sudo lsmod | grep -i nvidia

    5. Make configuration file xorg.file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
    $
    sudo nvidia-xconfig

    6. Reboot.
