I had the same problem with a laptop that needs the Nvidia driver. The
cause, at least in my case: when you install the new kernel the new
header files can not be installed because off dependency problems.
Because there are no new header files the proprietary driver can not be
compiled for the new kernel, so it can not be loaded by the new kernel.
For me this was only for a laptop where I did not need the WUSB54GC v3,
I just wanted to test it, so I did not really bother. It may be possible
to remedy this by force-installing the header files. No guaranty, I have
not tried that, but it is the only solution I can think off. I suppose
it will be remedied automatically when the patch is in the normal
production kernel.
