This bug was fixed in the package nvidia-graphics-drivers-177 - 177.70-0ubuntu1

---------------
nvidia-graphics-drivers-177 (177.70-0ubuntu1) intrepid; urgency=low

  * Add driver 178.70:
     * Added support for the following new GPUs:
       o GeForce 9800 GTX+
       o GeForce 9800 GT
       o GeForce 8100P
       o nForce 780a SLI
       o nForce 750a SLI
       o Quadro FX 770M
       o Quadro NVS 160M
       o Quadro NVS 150M
     * Improved support for RENDER operations with the same source
       and destination; this should enhance performance in
       some situations, e.g. when dragging Plasma applets in KDE4.
     * Fixed a text rendering performance regression that affected
       GeForce 6 and 7 series GPUs.
     * Fixed a regression that caused text to be missing or
       corrupt on GeForce 6 and 7 series GPUs.
     * Fixed a regression responsible for false negatives during
       SLI video bridge detection attempts after X server
       restarts.
     * Fixed a bug that resulted in AGP FW/SBA settings and overrides
       being applied incorrectly when using the Linux kernel's
       AGP GART driver.
     * Fixed a bug that caused initialization of the builtin AGP
       GART driver (NvAGP) to fail.
  * Fix (LP: #261816) Replace "remove" with "remove|upgrade" in the
    case loop in nvidia-177-kernel-source.prerm so that older versions
    of the drivers are removed in case of upgrade
