One other comment - there were some recent updates in hardy that broke
my nvidia, since I had packages for nvidia installed from the
repositories, and those overwrote the ones that the binary blob
provided.

Installing the new driver binary blob (which compiles a local kernel
module tailored for your running kernel, hence the need to install
kernel headers & build-essential packages. Ubuntu isn't supposed to
install that stuff by default, as most people don't build their own
packages, and for some, installing the drivers through the
repositories and through the gnome or kde package management systems
will do the job.
