It's been reported a few times. Just search for nvidia-common on launchpad.

You will need to re-install the nvidia drivers for them to work.

You can try using the Hardware Drivers applet (Found: System -> Administration -> Hardware Drivers) to install them.

When does that happen?

This error is related to the update-grub command, not DKMS.

Can you post the output of this command:
