[Bug 1303209] Re: No drivers shown, but I know there are drivers available

[Ben]

** Description changed:

- The driver manager does not show any drivers for my graphics card but I know that there are proprietary drivers available.  
- This is the second time I've installed 14.04 on this computer.  
+ The driver manager does not show any drivers for my graphics card but I know that there are proprietary drivers available.
+ This is the second time I've installed 14.04 on this computer.
  The first time, I loaded the driver manager on the frist boot after installing and it worked, there were additional drivers listed.  After that, I wanted to try different drivers but the driver manager wouldn't list any.
  
  This time around, I didn't try the driver manager on the first boot, as
  I installed the system updates first and then rebooted.  However, upon
  the second boot I ran the driver manager and there are no drivers to
  choose from no matter how many times I refresh it.
