In karmic it should be no problem:
- Uninstall any nvidia packages installed from the ubuntu repos
- Download the beta driver and make it executable (chmod +x
/path/to/NVIDIA-Linux-(x86|x86_64)-256.25.run)
- Switch to a virtual terminal (i.e. ctrl+alt+f2), login
- Stop X: sudo service gdm stop
- Check you've installed the build-essential package: sudo apt-get
install build-essential
- Install the driver: sudo /path/to/NVIDIA-Linux-(x86|x86_64)-256.25.run
- Reboot
