Title:
  recommended version of driver is at the bottom of the list

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Invalid
Status in “jockey” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  When opening the Hardware Drivers list, I see three things:

  * NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (version 173)
  * Broadcom STA wireless driver
  * NVIDIA graphics driver (version 185) [Recommended]

  With a longer list, the recommended driver can even be out of view and
  require scrolling. If the last item is the recommended graphics
  driver, shouldn't it be swapped with the 173 version in position?
  Also, is the use-case for installing a non-recommended version really
  strong enough for it to even be present in the UI?

  I propose that the order at least be swapped so the recommended driver
  is first, if not evaluate the value of listing non-recommended
  versions of hardware drivers.
