The same problem happen to me. I tried lots of reinstallation of the official and unofficial driver.
It's all my fault :) I wanted to build my own driver module ...
Finally, bored, I've done some hard cleaning :

sudo rm -f /lib/module/[currentkernel]/volatile/nvidia.ko
sudo rm -f /lib/module/[currentkernel]/volatile/nvidia_legacy.ko

CARE ! this solution worked for me cause my ubuntu didn't load the right module (nvidia rather than nvidia_new) but it's quite messy to remove the modules as I've done.
Maybe it's not the best solution but it worked...
