This bug was fixed in the package nvidia-graphics-drivers-updates -
304.64-0ubuntu0.1

---------------
nvidia-graphics-drivers-updates (304.64-0ubuntu0.1) precise-proposed; 
urgency=low

  * debian/dkms.conf.in,
    make-use-of-the-new-uapi-framework.patch,
    replace-VM_RESERVED-with-VM_DONTEXPAND-and-VM_DONTDU.patch:
    - Add support for Linux 3.7 (LP: #1075937).
  * New upstream release:
    - Fixed a bug that caused the EIZO FlexScan SX2762W
      monitor to remain blank when connected via
      DisplayPort.
    - Updated nvidia-settings to save and restore
      per-monitor color correction settings when RandR
      1.2 or later is available.
    - Fixed a bug that caused too many display devices
      to appear in the X Screen page of nvidia-settings
      when SLI is enabled.
    - Fixed a bug that caused applications to stop
      rendering or the X server to hang in Xinerama
      configurations when windows were moved, resized,
      mapped, or unmapped.
    - Fixed a bug that caused poor OpenGL performance
      on GeForce 6 and 7 PCI cards.
    - Fixed a bug in nvidia-settings that made it report
      the status of ECC configuration incorrectly.
    - Fixed a bug that caused the X server to crash if a
      display was put into DPMS off mode and subsequently
      reenabled while screen transformations are in use.
    - Fixed a bug that caused the X Resize and Rotate
      extension to be enabled when Xinerama is enabled.
      These two X extensions are incompatible and having
      them both enabled can confuse window managers such
      as KDE's kwin. RandR is now correctly disabled when
      Xinerama is enabled.
    - Fixed a bug causing OpenGL stereo applications to
      not work properly when using passive stereo modes 5
      through 9 on Quadro Fermi and newer GPUs.
    - Added support for the "Backlight" RandR output
      property for configuring the brightness of some
      notebook internal panels.
    - Fixed a bug that prevented the Ubuntu Unity launcher
      panel from unhiding (LP:# 1057000).
    - Fixed a bug that caused incorrect input
      transformation after resizing an NVIDIA X screen
      with xserver ABI 12 (xorg-server 1.12) or newer.
    - Fixed a bug that caused GLX to leak memory when
      Xinerama is enabled.
    - Fixed a regression in backlight control functionality
      on some notebook configurations.
    - Fixed a performance issue with recent Linux kernels
      when allocating and freeing system memory.
    - Fixed a bug that sometimes prevented the display
      device / X screen selection menu from being displayed
      in nvidia-settings.
    - Fixed a bug that prevented X driver gamma
      manipulation from working after a VT-switch on some
      configurations.
    - Added the option --output-file to nvidia-bug-report.sh
      to allow specifying a custom filename for the log file.
    - Fixed a hang when using OpenGL programs with some SLI
      Mosaic configurations on pre-Fermi GPUs.
    - Added sections to the Supported NVIDIA GPU Products
      list for NVS, Tesla, and VGX products.
    - Added support for the following GPUs:
      o VGX K1
      o VGX K2
      o Tesla K20c
      o Tesla K20m

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Nvidia and fglrx drivers need to be updated in order to build against Linux 
3.7

  [Test case]
  1. Install the latest upstream kernel as described at 
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds
  2. confirm that the nvidia and fglrx drivers fail to compile against this 
kernel, and that rebooting to this kernel gives no binary driver.
  3. upgrade to the packages in precise-proposed.
  4. confirm that the new version of the package successfully builds the kernel 
module.
