I can confirm this with my GT 520 card, but when I deactivate the
driver, reboot, activate again, and reboot again, everything seems to
work fine again, even though Additional Drivers reports that driver is
activated but currently not in use. Hopefully this will last.

Bug description:
  Video card: 01:00.0 0300: 10de:0322 (rev a1) "nVidia Corporation NV34
  [GeForce FX 5200] (rev a1)"

  Installed ubuntu Natty 11.04 and installed proposed "NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 173)"
  nvidia-173 (version 173.14.30-0ubuntu1)

  After reboot the screen became 640x480 and unity login got stuck.
  Had to do "apt-get remove nvidia-173".

  In jockey show this "This driver is activated but not currently in use".
  nvidia-173 is the recommended driver.
