Bug Description

This package is working fine with kernel 2.6.32-28-generic on ubuntu 10.04.

After compiling a new kernel 2.6.38-rc2., problem with nvidia kernel module began. nvidia-current 195.36.24 fails now with new kernel (2.6.38-rc2).

On 2.6.32-28, everything seems to work, but I saw the app active for bug reporting which prompts this report.

On 2.6.32-28:
glxgear shows around 19440 frames in 5.0 seconds.

user@saathi:~$ lsmod | grep nvidia
nvidia 9961216 41
agpgart 31724 2 nvidia,intel_agp

On 2.6.38-rc2 glxgears does not start and there is no nvidia kernel module loaded.
