Well, if I install the pae kernel with apt-get install, i expect it to
install whatever it needs and rebuild whatever needs to be rebuilt to
not break the system.
You are not supposed to have to figure out which other stuff you need to
install and what you have to rebuild when you install a package: that's
what package managers are for.
If not in the pae kernel itself, this is a bug in the way it (or the
NVidia driver or both) is packaged.

Title:
pae kernel corrupts nvidia driver
Status in “xorg” package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I have Ubuntu 12.04 and an NVidia graphics cars, I have the NVidia
drivers installed and it usually works fine (well, except for the
endless nvidia driver bugs). I have two screens configured.
Usually I can run "NVidia Settings" and set up screen resolutions,
twin view, etc.
I installed the pae kernel with "apt-get install linux-pae-generic"
(or something like that), then I rebooted (with the pae kernel) and my
second monitor stopped working. So I tried to run NVidia Settings but
I got the message "You don't seem to be using an NVidia X Driver".
I rebooted with the old normal non-pae kernen and everything works as
before.
