Title:
  at first boot, Jockey cant activate the broadcom driver

Status in “jockey” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Description:  Ubuntu lucid (development branch) - Ubuntu Studio BETA 1
  Release:      10.04

  
  After install I tried to install the restricted driver for my broadcom 
Wireless device, using jockey-gtk. When I tried to activate the driver, an 
error message showed up with this info : SystemError:  installArchives() failed.
  After this i tried to use the jockey-text using this command :  sudo 
jockey-text -e kmod:wl and the result was the same.
  With the help of zyga @#ubuntu-dev i started to try to find the error inside 
the python sources, but couldn't find any reference to this error. zyga also 
ran jockey-gtk using strace and it seams jockey didn't opened any files, so 
seams to me, there are no logs of the problem.
  After some time trying to find the source of the problem, i decided to reboot 
the computer and then it worked.

  So, this problem cant be reproduced easily, because it will need to be
  made on a fresh install and first boot.

  Maybe it is related to the apt repositories or the refreshing of the
  apt list, since jockey does import the apt module.

  this bug can be very annoying for someone that makes the first boot
  and can be scared away by it. although it was solved just for
  rebooting the machine. please, if you need more info say so and i will
  try to help in any way I can.
