Bug description:
  Note 1: nouveau loads though it is blacklisted. We don't know or
  understand why.

  Note 2: This happens with the 3.0.0-9 kernel as well as the other
  Oneiric kernels.

  [     7.332] (II) Module nvidia: vendor="NVIDIA Corporation"
  [     7.332]    compiled for 4.0.2, module version = 1.0.0
  [     7.332]    Module class: X.Org Video Driver
  [     7.341] (EE) NVIDIA: Failed to load the NVIDIA kernel module. Please check your
  [     7.341] (EE) NVIDIA:     system's kernel log for additional error messages.

  Nothing in dmesg.

  $ sudo modprobe nvidia-current
  FATAL: Error inserting nvidia_current (/lib/modules/3.0.0-10-generic/updates/dkms/nvidia-current.ko): No such device

  The same thing works under Natty.
