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:
