@Silvio: It sounds like a different problem from the one I had (the
nvidia driver failed to get an interrupt for the card in my case). I
have seen dkms fail to install the new driver in the past though.

Just a note in case it helps anyone, the commands to install the driver
are:

Check if the driver is installed for any kernel:

dkms status

sudo dkms build -m nvidia-current -v [insert version here] -k [insert
kernel version here]

sudo dkms install -m nvidia-current -v [insert version here] -k [insert
kernel version here]

eg for kernel 3.0.0-13-generic and nvidia 290.10:

sudo dkms install -m nvidia-current -v 290.10 -k 3.0.0-13-generic

You can also use the tab key to auto-complete the module, version, and
kernel version, which is handy.
