You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I had to install an older graphics card, and /usr/bin/jockey-gtk
recommended to install nvidia driver 173. However, installation failed.

System is Lucid 10.04.3 and kernel is reported by uname as :
3.0.0-8-generic #11~lucid1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Aug 17 15:28:57 UTC 2011 i686 GNU/Linux

Attempts to install via jockey ended with "SystemError:
installArchives() failed"

Using apt-get upgrade resulted in:
Loading new nvidia-173-173.14.27 DKMS files...
First Installation: checking all kernels...
Building only for 3.0.0-8-generic
Building for architecture i686
Building initial module for 3.0.0-8-generic

Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 3.0.0-8-generic (i686)
Consult the make.log in the build directory
/var/lib/dkms/nvidia-173/173.14.27/build/ for more information.
