When you installed nvidia-updates, did you see it successfully build DKMS modules? If not, purge nvidia-updates and then install it again and confirm it could build the modules.
Thanks for your help. The DKMS do build, but I did not install nvidia-updates, only nvidia-current, could that be the problem? On the other hand, I also tried the latest driver downloaded directly from nvidia, and it had the same issue.

I'd like to try again, but this site isn't working today:

Would anyone be so kind as to upload the 3.7 debs somewhere for me? Thanks a lot in advance.
