Added /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf with

alias nvidia nvidia-current

and rebooted. Now "modprobe nvidia" no longer complains, but I still have all of the other issues noted earlier.

/lib/modules/2.6.32-22-generic/updates/dkms contains one nvidia file, nvidia-current.ko, dated when I installed from the PPA. Sounds correct, right?

The only other nvidia file I find under that tree is /lib/modules/2.6.32-22-generic/kernel/drivers/video/nvidia/nvidiafb.ko dated 6/3. But that is blacklisted in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf so I doubt that it is interfering.

glxinfo reports "Error: couldn't find RGB GLX visual or fbconfig". I have no ideas about this.

Anything else I can try? Or do I just have to uninstall this and go back to 195?
