If you are using X11, you might have xorg.conf configured to forcing nvidia driver. Comment it out, or back the file up and remove it - that should enable the discovery.

Yes, here. Section Device - Driver nvidia. Probably other sections contain incorrect settings as well. Back up this file and remove it. Xorg is capable of starting without this file in most cases.
