Bug Description

Binary package hint: dkms

Description: Ubuntu 9.04

When using Hardware Drivers in the System -> Administration menu, clicking activate causes the application to hang, and then crash.

I expected it to just install smoothly like in 8.10.

This has happened on both my desktop and laptop computer.
