yes, thanks Carey

In my case, I had to apply a patch to the default nvidia 96.43.10
source. There is a patch for the 180.44 driver that you can find here:

http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=131597

I've attached a version made for the 96.43.10 module (actually, I didn't
try out the above patch directly, it might work)

In more details:
assuming all required packages are installed(like linux-headers, 
nvidia-96-kernel-source, etc), apply the patch to the following directory:
/usr/src/nvidia-96.43.10

I've installed the 2.6.30-7-generic kernel, so the build command for this looks 
like this:
sudo dkms build -m nvidia -v 96.43.10 -k 2.6.30-7-generic

and install it with:
sudo dkms install -m nvidia -v 96.43.10 -k 2.6.30-7-generic

if all went well, 'dkms status' should include an entry:
nvidia, 96.43.10, 2.6.30-7-generic, i686: installed

obviously instead of '96.43.10', you'll have your driver version there
(if not the same as mine).
