[nVidia] "System->Preferences->Appearance" setting desktop effects creates a redundant notice

Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

(I'm not sure if its the correct package)

When choosing "Appearance" under "System"->"Preferences", and then going to "Desktop Effects" and selecting "Extra Effects", a dialog box labeled "Restricted Driver Manager" pops up noting that "nvidia driver is already enabled" with a single "OK" button. Clicking the "OK" button continues normally without an error, but the dialog box itself is rather useless.
