In karmic it should be no problem:
  - Uninstall any nvidia packages installed from the ubuntu repos
  - Download the beta driver and make it executable (chmod +x 
/path/to/NVIDIA-Linux-(x86|x86_64)-256.25.run)
  - Switch to a virtual terminal (i.e. ctrl+alt+f2), login
  - Stop X: sudo service gdm stop
  - Check you've installed the build-essential package: sudo apt-get 
install build-essential
  - Install the driver: sudo /path/to/NVIDIA-Linux-(x86|x86_64)-256.25.run
  - Reboot

For lucid users it is more complicated, for example see

(haven't tested myself).
