Title:
  nvidia module only working after gdm restart

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I'm using the nvidia driver on lucid for a GT240. The driver installs
  fine, but on reboot Xorg complains about an unusable configuration and
  does not start:

  (EE) Jun 10 08:11:08 NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module. Please see the
  (EE) Jun 10 08:11:08 NVIDIA(0):     system's kernel log for additional error messages and
  (EE) Jun 10 08:11:08 NVIDIA(0):     consult the NVIDIA README for details.
  (EE) NVIDIA(0):  *** Aborting ***
  (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

  After switching to a tty and running "/etc/init.d/gdm restart" (the "restart X" option in the rescue X11 windows does not work), Xorg comes up just fine without any errors and nvidia works.
  There are not nvidia-related errors in the kernel-log.
  Is there some sort of race-condition between modules or an incomplete blacklist?
