in my case linux-headers-2.6.32-21-generic was installed.
I expected this package to be updated at the same time the new kernel 2.6.32-22 was installed.

However, it did not. When I recognized that the nvidia module failed to build, I saw that "linux-headers-generic" was not installed. Installing this package also installed the update to inux-headers-2.6.32-22-generic.

I installed the nvidia-driver with the program "Hardware Drivers" from the KDE-Menu.
Ths installed "nvidia-current" which depends either on "linux-headers-generic" or "linux-headers".

The dependency "linux-headers" is fullfilled by "linux-headers-2.6.32.21-generic".

I also installed in text-mode with the alternate kubuntu-cd for amd64.
