Can confirm the same here on my System LinuxMint 11 Katya.

Graphic-card:

02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation C79 [GeForce 9200M

System: Gnome-Desktop 3.0.2 with Gnome-Shell 
Gnome-Shell-version: 3.1.3

Kernel: 2.6.38-10-generic (x86_64)
Architecture: x86_64

I notice, that my grphiccard often overheats with nouveau-driver and I
have to switch off my Notebook. And if I try to install nvidia-current,
my jockey shows the message: nvidia-current activated but not in use.
But this nouveau-driver is not solution for the future, because of
melting graphiccard.

And what I also found out is, that nvidia-current-modaliases is a direct
dependency of nvidia-current. But of nvidia-current-modaliases being a
lower version than nvidia-current, these two packages conflickt with
each other and this causes nvidia-current not to work in Ubuntu 11.04 as
well as in LinuxMint 11 Katya
