Bug Description
I upgraded from 10.10 to 11.04 today.
The upgrade process seemed to go smoothly, and there was no hint of trouble until after the reboot, when I got nothing but a fullscreen terminal and a command line.
After logging in and typing "startx", after a large amount of text scrolled up the screen I got the following:
FATAL: Module nvidia not found.
(EE) NVIDIA: Failed to load the NVIDIA kernal module. Please check your
(EE) NVIDIA: system's kernal log for additional error messages.
(EE) Failed to load module "nvidia" (module specific error, 0)
(EE) No drivers available.
Fatal server error:

If you are using a Linux 2.4 kernel, please make sure
you either have configured kernel sources matching your
kernel or the correct set of kernel headers installed
on your system.
If you are using a Linux 2.6 kernel, please make sure
you have configured kernel sources matching your kernel
installed on your system. If you specified a separate
output directory using either the "KBUILD_OUTPUT" or
the "O" KBUILD parameter, make sure to specify this
directory with the SYSOUT environment variable or with
the equivalent nvidia-installer command line option.
Depending on where and how the kernel sources (or the
kernel headers) were installed, you may need to specify
their location with the SYSSRC environment variable or
the equivalent nvidia-installer command line option.
