@Daniel: if you're referring to LP: #1315433, that's not really the same issue, as it refers to Linux 3.15 (it looks like a custom kernel), that is not in 14.04 (at least not yet), as per the bug's description:

TEST CASE FOR 10.04: Starting with a fresh Ubuntu 10.04.3 installation... sudo add-apt-repository ppa:kernel-ppa/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install linux-image-3.0.0-8-generic sudo apt-get install linux-headers-3.0.0-8-generic # or should that be: install linux-lts-backport-oneiric ? # REBOOT sudo apt-get install nvidia-173 # The above command fails with an error. # Check the exact error: cat /var/lib/dkms/nvidia-173/*/build/make.log ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: Brand new install of 10.04 onto a formatted hard drive. The upgrade icon said there was a restricted driver available - I clicked it. When I was running a Windows XP VMWare image, the video seemed to completely reset. I had to shut down and restart.
