Bug Description
Binary package hint: restricted-manager
My desktop computer has an Nvidia Geforce 6200 video card.
I installed the nvidia-glx via synaptic, to get 3D working.
However the restricted drivers manager refuses to start, and just pops up a message (attached) saying that
"The hardware does not need any restricted drivers".
As much as I would love this to be true, I don't think the 3D Nvidia driver is GPL as of today ! ;-)
