Please read the log file you created, especially the part about different driver installation methods, blacklisting nouveau, using the correct compiler and checking the README for further troubleshooting.
It is probably related to the fact that you are running on a VM and try to initialize X for the NVIDIA GPU while VMWare already provides a virtual GPU through vmwgfx.
Thanks!
-> An alternate method of installing the NVIDIA driver was detected. (This is usually a package provided by your distributor.) A driver installed via that method may integrate better with your system than a driver installed by nvidia-installer.
Please review the message provided by the maintainer of this alternate installation method and decide how to proceed:
The NVIDIA driver provided by Ubuntu can be installed by launching the "Software & Updates" application, and by selecting the NVIDIA driver from the "Additional Drivers" tab.
-> For some distributions, Nouveau can be disabled by adding a file in the modprobe configuration directory. Would you like nvidia-installer to attempt to create this modprobe file for you? (Answer: Yes)
-> One or more modprobe configuration files to disable Nouveau have been written. For some distributions, this may be sufficient to disable Nouveau; other distributions may require modification of the initial ramdisk. Please reboot your system and attempt NVIDIA driver installation again. Note if you later wish to re-enable Nouveau, you will need to delete these files: /usr/lib/modprobe.d/nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf, /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia-installer-disable-nouveau.conf

understood, i try to block the vmwgfx kernel with
sudo nano /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf
blacklist vmwgfx
i also try to install it like the way log suggest
but somehow when i run nvidia-settings --version
nvidia-settings: version 510.47.03
The NVIDIA Settings tool.
This program is used to configure the NVIDIA Linux graphics driver.
For more detail, please see the nvidia-settings(1) man page.
it state 510 instead of 535

note : i also try to run driver without disabling vmwgfx but it still doesnt give any good result.
Please help
