Public bug reported:

I get the message "This driver is activated but not currently in use" in
jockey when I try to use my nvidia driver. I tried removing it and
reinstalling, but after reboot it still gave me this message.

<jasoncwarner_> jaytaoko is seeing the same thing on his nvidia natty
system
