This has actually happened frequently in the past -- that the legacy nvidia drivers get abandoned for a time. Previously, the problem had always eventually gotten fixed. However, this is something that we should warn people about. At least in my experience, using the nvidia-96 drivers in Maverick will not allow you any graphic capabilities. You will be dropped to a command line, but will not be given a chance to switch to lower graphic capabilities, as in previous versions of Ubuntu. (In Lucid and some previous releases, when nvidia was not working, it would ask to use low-graphics mode. This does not happen in Maverick, even though I have nv and nouveau installed)
