I seem to be having the same problem. I reported this as: bug #138933: [Gusty] Broken Nvidia driver after upgrade to Gusty (7.10)
What might be the problem is a hidden file in /lib/linux-restricted-modules/ try running:
sudo rm /lib/linux-restricted-modules/.nvidia*
Also see these bug reports for more information: Bug #106217: Hidden file does not get removed when switching from nvidia-glx-new/nvidia-glx-legacy to nvidia-glx causing X not to start due to mismatch of versions Bug #130799: Gutsy nvidia-glx no gpu or API mismatch
