Comment 264 for bug 1268257

      I've also had problems with 304, I've not had much luck at all getting
the version supplied with Ubuntu to work, I've had to download 304.125 from
Nvidias website and use it, and even then the DKMS module build never works
so I have to re-install which each new kernel I install. But since I'm
running unsupported (upstream) kernels at this point I've not reported it as
a problem.
