Bug Description
Since 12.10 i am unable to install the nvidia drivers via the gui, update-manager settings (Software Sources -> Additional Drivers) will not give me an option to install, just shows an empty list.
jockey-text returns an empty list aswell
"jockey-text
Additional Drivers
Searching for available drivers...
"
jockey-kde on the other hand shows a list of 6 drivers with the same title.
lspci|grep VGA shows me:

install software- properties- kde, and purge all the jockey installed packages.
Jockey has been superseded by software- properties, which now handles
third-party driver configuration.
