[SOLVED] 
I've downloaded and installed from repositorty the new kernel 3.2.0.30. After 
that, I tried again to install Nvidia drivers from 'Additional drivers': same 
failure, but reading XOrg log in /var/log and check xorg.conf file I found the 
real problem: the Nvidia proprietary driver installation doesn't set the 
'Driver "nvidia"' line, but leave the old value "nouveau".
In my old ubuntu versions I didn't set manually that value, all did set 
automatically...
Now the driver nvidia-173-updates is CORRECTLY LOADED and my framerate (tested 
with glxgears) is passed from 2400 to 10000.
