Bug Description
The driver manager does not show any drivers for my graphics card but I know that there are proprietary drivers available.
This is the second time I've installed 14.04 on this computer.
The first time, I loaded the driver manager on the frist boot after installing and it worked, there were additional drivers listed. After that, I wanted to try different drivers but the driver manager wouldn't list any.
This time around, I didn't try the driver manager on the first boot, as I installed the system updates first and then rebooted. However, upon the second boot I ran the driver manager and there are no drivers to choose from no matter how many times I refresh it.
Ubuntu Release - Kubuntu 14.04 Trusty Tahr 64bit
kubuntu-
Installed: 14.04ubuntu5
Candidate: 14.04ubuntu5
Version table:
*** 14.04ubuntu5 0

I expected to be able to load a proprietary driver for my AMD/ATI graphics card.
What actually happened is no drivers were listed despite the fact that I know they should be available.
Also, sometimes it says, "Something went terribly wrong. Please hit the 'Refresh Drivers List' button."
