BTW, for anyone who is interested in getting this to work:

(quoting solution from http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1741754)

"[The] problem is that you have the nvidia driver installed as a deb
package but not the driver itself, for which you need the kernel
headers.

Install the package kernel-headers-blabla corresponding to your current
kernel (see uname -a). Then do install --reinstall of the nvidia package
or install --reinstall of the linux kernel - this will force the
creation of the nvidia kernel module. Reboot.

Those commands:
sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-headers-2.6.38-8-generic-pae
sudo apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-2.6.38-8-generic-pae"
