Martin: I think you misunderstand the problem.

Even with the current version in bzr (lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/jockey/ubuntu
r531), I get the following:

$ aptitude search '^linux.*generic$~i'
i   linux-generic                   - Complete Generic Linux kernel
i   linux-image-2.6.38-7-generic    - Linux kernel image for version 2.6.38 on x
i   linux-image-generic             - Generic Linux kernel image
$ jockey-gtk
[install the nvidia driver]
$ aptitude search '^linux.*generic$~i'
i   linux-generic                   - Complete Generic Linux kernel
i   linux-headers-2.6.38-7-generic  - Linux kernel headers for version 2.6.38 on
i   linux-image-2.6.38-7-generic    - Linux kernel image for version 2.6.38 on x
i   linux-image-generic             - Generic Linux kernel image

To solve this bug, the ‘linux-headers-generic’ metapackage needs to be
installed, not just the ‘linux-headers-2.6.38-7-generic’ package.  For
why this is important, reread my comment above.
