This bug was fixed in the package nvidia-graphics-drivers -
285.05.09-0ubuntu1

---------------
nvidia-graphics-drivers (285.05.09-0ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low

  * New upstream release:
    - Added support for the following GPU:
      o GeForce GT 520MX
    - Added support for xserver ABI 11 (xorg-server 1.11).
    - Fixed a bug causing a Linux kernel BUG when retrieving
      CPU information on some systems.
    - Fixed a bug causing some applications to hang on exit.
    - Fixed a bug causing flickering in some GPU/display
      combinations.
    - Fixed a bug that could result in poor OpenGL performance
      after hotplugging a monitor.
    - Fixed a bug causing possible text corruption when
      recovering from GPU errors.
  * debian/dkms.conf{.in}:
    - Make sure that dkms doesn't use the gold linker,
      otherwise the resulting module would cause kernel
      oops (LP: #607399).
    - Drop non functional OBSOLETE_BY variable.
