Here is the info for the nvidia-current driver from the Ubuntu repos:

Just follow the instructions I gave in post #2 of this thread.

Do you mean I can do these ops you suggested me safely?
Code
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nvidia-current nvidia-settings
sudo nvidia-xconfig
sudo reboot
/Code
If yes i'll do it now. Bowsing for solutions I've discovered that the kernel knows my video card is a Nvidia but remains a mistery the loss of xorg.conf.

It seems that ubuntu recognize my video card but something make not possible to use 3d or Compiz Fusion, that is my real aim.
I have two ways: the first is to create a xorg.conf in some way. The second is to follow your steps. Probably the result is the same but i am not very expert and I need a confirmation.
Thanks for your patience.
