I'm having a similar problem with my Dell Inspiron E1505 laptop running
the latest 11.04 Beta 2 install.  Unity worked for a while, then Update
Manager came up and I installed updates and now I can only run the old
desktop.  I'm not dual booting this laptop and I'm just running the
screen on the laptop itself.  When I check the Additional Drivers
dialog, it says that the driver is active but not in use.

I tried running the command line given above and got an error when I
tried to run the dkpg -l command.  Here's the rest of the output:

I've also tried the sudo nvidia-xconfig command with no luck.

What I find odd is that when I first installed the new OS, Unity worked
fine until update manager ran.  I've also noticed that there is a long
pause during the boot up sequence where the screen is blank.

Thanks,
