Title:
  Jockey fails to Activate driver: You are not authorised to perform
  this action

Status in “jockey” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Clicked Hardware Drivers in a fresh Wubified install of Ubuntu 10.04
  Beta 1.

  Detected the Nvidia restricted drivers correctly, but clicking
  Activate raises the error :-

   "You are not authorised to perform this action"

  No prompt offered to raise privileges, as has happened in past
  versions, impossible to continue with the install.

  Managed to get this working by manually invoking as superuser from a
  terminal :-

  gksu /usr/bin/jockey-gtk

  I assume jockey used to offer to run as superuser when it needed to?
