As far as she's concerned, It Just Works.
you realized the the OP has a stone-old nvidia card which needs the legacy driver - did you? the only reason why it MAY be supported currently by Ubuntu is that they ahve way much older kernels the older kernels are a much bader situation i remeber last year as i became my new workstation F14 which was still supported at this time did not support the on-borad intel network card and the X-Server freezed the whole day with the SandyBrdige graphics - so yes we need recent kernels to support recent hardware and if people do not buy crap needing closed surce drivers they would too have no problems
