-> The file '/tmp/.X0-lock' exists and appears to contain the process ID '2059' of a running X server.
-> You appear to be running an X server.  Installing the NVIDIA driver while X is running is not recommended, as doing so may prevent the installer from detecting some potential installation problems, and it may not be possible to start new graphics applications after a new driver is installed.  If you choose to continue installation, it is highly recommended that you reboot your computer after installation to use the newly installed driver. (Answer: Abort installation)
