Bug Description

[Hardy 8.04 i386 desktop alpha daily 29 Jan 2008] Since this build does not install any restricted driver manager, I used Synaptic to install Jockey-gtk in a freshly installed system after bringing system up-to-date and reloading repositories. Jockey-gtk crashes when attempting to activate nVidia restricted driver. (Driver was installed by system installation by default.) Traceback shows an undefined Python global name "time" was the cause of the crash.

As reported in bug #177141, no restricted driver manager is installed by the default installation. Neither jockey nor restricted manager exist on the daily manifest. This needs to be resolved by 8.04 final release, but the sooner the better for testing.
UPDATE: jockey-gtk and jockey-common now are on the LiveCD manifest, so they load by default as of the 20080131.2 build. However, the version of jockey-gtk is still 0.1~r139 on that manifest, so it is the same version as the one I reported crashed (see below). So the bug still exists.
