What do you mean by active but not currently used? Can you explain further or provide a screenshot? – RolandiXor♦ Apr 30 '11 at 21:01

It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, see the FAQ.

It is a bug. If you can run nvidia-settings and that shows that you are using the nvidia driver, then you can safely ignore the "not currently in use" warning.
