What is the GPU driver I am currently running?
Update typing:
nvidia-smi
gives you the driver verson nowadays.
Old answer:
Typing nvidia-settings --version
will tell you what version of the NVidia driver is currently installed (even when it's not running).
lsmod | grep video
will show you the running video module.
modinfo szWhateverWasTheOutputOfThePreviousCommand
will give you the version of the running module.
