IMHO that means that you are currently running kernel 3.0.0-12 which is<br>
from 11.10 IIRC. Reboot to the 3.2.0-29-generic kernel and the Nvidia<br>
driver should be working again. However if it is intentional for some<br>
reason that you are running the old kernel, you should install the<br>
package linux-headers-3.0.0-12-generic from the 11.10 repository and<br>
then reinstall the nvidia-current package which should now succeed<br>
building the module.</div></blockquote></div><br></div>Hm. Now the weirdness is that 3.2 doesn't even show up as an option in Grub. But I did sudo updat-grub, and that seems to have fixed that problem. Now X is working and Nvidia drivers seem to be working (mostly) as well. Thanks for the clue!!<div>
