@Darik Horn: Thanks for packaging this.

Ubuntu 10.10 (fully updated)

*-display
       description: VGA compatible controller
       product: NV25GL [Quadro4 900 XGL]
       vendor: nVidia Corporation

Shows up in Jockey properly, cannot enable desktop effects (System|Preferences|Appearance|Visual Effects - Extra) until:
$ sudo nvidia-xconfig
and reboot.

Afterwards I am able to set desktop effects. However none of the compiz settings (using the compiz settings manager) work.

$ cat xorg.conf
