Comment 4 for bug 298584

Not that I'm aware of. I use Hardy at the moment, and activating the drivers with the default ones found on the repos will be older than the ones downloaded by the ENVY application created by Alberto Milone. It even chooses from 3 different drivers automatically depending on your Nvidia card. To get it make sure you enable universe an multiverse in repos.

Then if you are in GNOME do:

sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk

or if in KDE:

sudo apt-get install envyng-qt

then run the application, should be in system tools or open a shell and type sudo envyng-gtk or envyng-qt (depending which of both you installed), when it opens up select Nvidia and make sure automatic hardware selection is activated, let it do it's thing, will take about 3 minutes reboot and let's hope you've got Nvidia drivers up and running. When you update your kernel you will have to do this again (every kernel upgrade), so don't remove it.

the non graphical way of running envy is sudo envyng -t

It's good to know if for example you upgrade your kernel in a future and system fails to boot in graphical mode.

Good Luck.
