Public bug reported:

I'm using the nvidia driver on lucid for a GT240. The driver installs
fine, but on reboot Xorg complains about an unusable configuration and
does not start:

(EE) Jun 10 08:11:08 NVIDIA(0): Failed to initialize the NVIDIA kernel module. Please see the
(EE) Jun 10 08:11:08 NVIDIA(0):     system's kernel log for additional error messages and
(EE) Jun 10 08:11:08 NVIDIA(0):     consult the NVIDIA README for details.
(EE) NVIDIA(0):  *** Aborting ***
(EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration.

After switching to a tty and running "/etc/init.d/gdm restart" (the "restart X" option in the rescue X11 windows does not work), Xorg comes up just fine without any errors and nvidia works.
There are not nvidia-related errors in the kernel-log.
Is there some sort of race-condition between modules or an incomplete blacklist?
