Right now, because of the dependency on nvidia-common, it is impossible to install boinc-nvidia-cuda on a system with any Nvidia driver other than nvidia-304 installed.

Because the Nvidia drivers in Ubuntu are packaged differently to Debian's, I do not know if it is possible to solve this without modifying boinc-nvidia-cuda, as was done in nvidia-cuda-toolkit, see:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=700621

I am hoping to get some feedback from Alberto Milone who packages the Nvidia drivers in Ubuntu.
