Bug Description

I have a i5 processor and the nvidia geforce 410m 512MB graphics card. I am on Ubuntu 10.04. The default kernel does not support my ethernet card or the intel graphics on my machine. I installed the linux-image-generic-lts-backport-oneiric kernel to get support for my ethernet card, etc. After that I tried to install the driver for my graphics card by installing nvidia-current. But the build failed.
