That was because a pkg image update restored the old driver.
Whoops.

In case anyone else is trying to update to a newer Nvidia driver,
there's a closed bug on d.o.othat is very helpful...
https://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=12196

Basically you have to pkg uninstall driver/graphics/nvidia
before you run the Nvidia driver script and in order to do
that you have to clone your current BE.

Hope this helps someone!
