Public bug reported:

RELEASE:  Lucid Lynx
CD/DVD VARIANT:  32bit Ubuntu Alternate CD
ISO BUILD:  2010-03-02
SYMPTOMS:  I installed the NVidia-current driver using Hardware Drivers. After rebooting, Hardware Drivers shows:
    "No proprietary drivers are in use on this system."

    NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version current) [Recommended]

    This driver is activated but not currently in use.

The NVidia GUI configuration tool is not available in any menu, even after restarting twice. It is, however, listed in
System -> Preferences -> Startup Applications  as 'NVIDIA X Server Settings 
and it does have a checkmark on it.
