Hi Jean-Baptiste, This is a bit embarrassing - I tried to enable screen effects from the system menu and let it install the nvidia driver but it didn't work properly with my dual monitor setup so I allowed it to remove the driver, thinking it would go back to the perfectly functional state it had been in.
To cut a long story short, there is no longer a nv.c.rej to send and furthermore the screens (both of them) will not proceed past the ubuntu logo on booting. They show that a disk check is required but pressing C to skip makes no difference. I can still ssh in from my laptop (which is how I know the file (and indeed the whole ../nvidia-96... directory) is absent so it looks like the kernel is running fine - it is just X that is screwed up. I think something similar happened when I upgraded to 9.10 and I ended up doing a fresh install from a CD (my home partition is a separate disk so that isn't a problem. Sorry - that isn't much help to you in addressing the original problem S.
