Thanks Ralf, helpful info. But no luck yet. see below.

Don't guess, take a look at /var/log/Xorg.0.log. When doing this, first
grep EE, IOW run

grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Failed to load module :)

 grep EE /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Modules have to fit to the kernel. You should run the NVIDIA *run thingy
manually.

I've got no time to search for you an English howto, sorry, on the quick
I only found a German howto:
http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/Grafikkarten/Nvidia/Manuelle_Treiberinstallation

ok. that clarifies it, thank you.
Anyway, I tried the module building only, and failed again.

to be extra-safe, this time I booted the rt kernel and did:
sudo ./nvidia-installer -a -K --kernel-name=$(uname -r)

From the nvidia log I can see the module being successfully built, but not installed because:

ERROR: A DKMS kernel module with version 310.44 is already installed.
ERROR: Installation has failed.

So, something is still wrong. It would seem my previous installation had installed a module in the rt kernel, but that module doesn't work with rt kernel 3.2.xx?

thanks,
cheers,
