Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-14-generic
The restricted Nvidia driver coming with 7.10 does not work with my
Laptop's Nvidia chip (Lenovo T61, VGA compatible controller: nVidia
Corporation Quadro NVS 140M (rev a1)). I therefore installed the driver
from Nvidia's homepage which works smoothly.
However, I also need the restricted wireless driver for my Intel 3945
chipset which also comes with the same package. I therefore installed it
and overwrote my manually installed Nvidia driver. A perfect solution
for this would be the separation of both (unrelated) modules into
separate restricted packages (which might for usability reasons be
incorporated into a restricted-drivers metapackage).
** Affects: linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22 (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided

NVidia and Intel wireless driver should have separate restricted-* packages
