I'm trying to run Minecraft on my Ubuntu 12.04 but I'm having the following error:
[08:04:00 INFO]: Client> org.lwjgl.LWJGLException: Could not init GLX

Looking around the net, I found out my nvidia drivers are not being used, using the following command:
lsb_release -a && lspci -vmk | grep -A 8 -B 2 VGA && lspci | grep VGA && glxinfo | grep -w 'direct\|OpenGL'
I get:

How can I get the right driver installed and used by default?
BTW, in the Additional Drivers section I see the nvidia driver, but it says that the driver is installed but not being used.
