Jockey shows no drivers on Hardy Beta live CD

Bug Description

When running the live CD, if I go to Jockey, it tells me that no restricted drivers are in use, but does not list any to be enabled.

I have an EN8600GT graphics card that certainly does require restricted drivers for full performance. I would expect to see the Nvidia driver listed. It's not there - it's a blank list.

Gutsy shows the correct driver, but Hardy doesn't.

Jockey doesn't actually tell me that I *don't* need restricted drivers, so I'm completely in the dark about what's gone wrong with its hardware detection.

lsb_release:
Description: Ubuntu hardy (development branch)
Release: 8.04
(it's the Beta live disc)

Can you please open a Terminal on the live system and do

  jockey-gtk --list --debug 2>&1 | tee /tmp/debug.txt

and attach /tmp/debug.txt here? Thank you!

(Sorry, I'm on a conference and do not currently have access to live CD boots and a computer which needs restricted drivers.)

Ah, nevermind. This is a duplicate of bug 197264, and I have an idea why that happens.
