Public bug reported: 64bits. nvidia driver (177.76-0ubuntu1) installed via synaptics. Tried with and without xorg.conf
* Driver does not show up in Hardware drivers (jockey-gtk). * I cannot activate compiz via Appearance > Visual Effects * nvidia-settings gives me "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run `nvidia-xconfig` as root), and restart the X server." Note that things worked until about 2.6.27-3 (or maybe parallel other packages). Also note that I have an Intel Wireless Wifi Link 5100 that _does_ work since the same kernel.
