Bug Description
1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'cat /etc/lsb-release' or System -> About Ubuntu.
Reproduce in Hardy Alpha 5 and 6 Live CD
2) What you expected to happen
Boot into live CD. Enable desktop effects to show off to friends after I enable restricted drivers from the Hardware Drivers tool.
3) What happened instead
From the LiveCD, I can't install restricted drivers. Opening "Hardware drivers" shows "no proprietary drivers are in use on this system" and a empty list without any graphic cards listed in it.
