Just as the title says, might need some polish, especially considering that all the DKMS stuff has no impact since we are not using it anymore. This has never been a problem IMO: every OS update I always had to reinstall the drivers anyway. Another thing is that the installer is NOT run silently: if the generated keys get dropped, installation fails, and I found no command line option to keep them (if there is, then we can make the installer silent again, and avoid user confusion)

I just installed the driver and I only added --no-cc-version-check option and everything works. That is I have DKMS on.

So here's what I'm thinking:

Incorporate line 58-91 and line 93-107. The only real problem is on line 88 as explaind here
I will make a new branch and please merge them to the new one.
Probably I will allow the user to invoke the script with additional parameters passed to the installer. I will do this in another commit.

Please merge into optimus-workaround branch.
