Comment 11 for bug 197264

I am currently at a conference without access to booting live CDs and computers which need restricted drivers, so I'm afraid I need some help here. I believe the issue is due to one of two things:

 (1) The live system does not have restricted enabled in the apt sources.

 (2) The live system was built without running apt-get update.

In order to find this out, can you please check in a running live system:

  * apt-cache show nvidia-glx

Does this output the package information, or nothing? Does it work after "sudo apt-get update"? If yes, it is (2), if not, it is probably (1). In the case of (2), jockey should work after apt-get update, too.
