NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 185) failing after upgrading to karmic

Asked by Jonas G. Drange

Dist upgraded. After reboot, the Ubuntu logo was displayed for 20 seconds then it all went black. After waiting 5 minutes, I rebooted and started a shell as root via recovery mode. Removing xorg.conf made GDM start.

When I go to "Hardware drivers", I see two drivers, 173 and 185. 173 works, albeit with some issues. 185 fails every time.
