I am currently at a conference without access to booting live CDs and
computers which need restricted drivers, so I'm afraid I need some help
here. I believe the issue is due to one of two things:
(1) The live system does not have restricted enabled in the apt
sources.
(2) The live system was built without running apt-get update.
In order to find this out, can you please check in a running live
system:
* apt-cache show nvidia-glx
Does this output the package information, or nothing? Does it work after
"sudo apt-get update"? If yes, it is (2), if not, it is probably (1). In
the case of (2), jockey should work after apt-get update, too.
