I thought I would add my experience since I finally got around to trying
out the suggestions mentioned in this post.
*Hardware* (relevant output from lspci -v)
05:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G72M [GeForce Go 7200]
(rev a1) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller])
Subsystem: Hewlett-Packard Company Device 30b7
Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16
Memory at c7000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
Memory at d0000000 (64-bit, prefetchable) [size=256M]
Memory at c6000000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16M]
Expansion ROM at <unassigned> [disabled]
Capabilities: <access denied>
Kernel driver in use: nvidia
Kernel modules: nvidia_current, nouveau, nvidiafb
*Driver*
nvidia 295.40
*OS*
Ubuntu 11.10 x86_64
*Method*
All I had to do was use the xorg-edgers ppa and everything else was automatic.
Thanks to all who have helped resolve this bug (if you see this). I am
thrilled to finally have real Unity with a current driver.
I haven't had any of the segfaults mentioned above, but I have only been
running it for a few hours.
