package libc6-i386 2.15-0ubuntu10.3 failed to install/upgrade: package libc6-i386 is already installed and configured

[Matthew Taylor Ricks]

Tried installing a proprietary driver to utilize the graphics card on my Dell Studio 1737. It's a dual-boot setup using the WuBi installer. Interestingly enough I deleted files WuBi needed, so I had to redo the install, but the first time around I was able to install the driver without any trouble.
