Since you are using a 3.9.x kernel, you need a newer version of the nvidia-173 driver than what is offered in Lucid repos. Ubuntu Lucid/10.04 desktop is now at EOL (end of life) support status, and the nvidia-173 driver has since been updated to work with kernels up to 3.11.x, so I am marking this Fix Released. If you encounter the error on currently supported versions of Ubuntu, please file a new bug with apport or ubuntu-bug to gather updated information. Thanks.
