Phoronix seemed to think it worked. That review is from 2006, and on Fedora, 
but my personal experience with NVidia drivers (on Fedora. I've never run 
Ubuntu) is that the coverage is pretty complete. I haven't run into a card 
yet that didn't work with the proprietary NVidia drivers; and I like Nvidia 
more than the other brands.

OTOH, the 6600 and the 6100 likely use the same driver core (both being 
6-series cards), so the video change might not be substantial.

Phoronix has some other semi-related articles:

You can probably reference any of the NF4G articles, as they appear to only 
differ by the chipset. The chipset should be covered, so the peripherals are 
more likely to be of concern.

Might I suggest experimenting with other distros? Most have live-CDs, and 
some may have the proprietary NVidia driver loaded. Fedora doesn't, but from 
an install, it's just a matter of adding the RPM-Fusion repo, and adding 
NVidia. You'd need to do your homework; but a clean install of something 
else might get you running.
