Public bug reported:
I'm pretty sure that "ubuntu-drivers install --gpgpu" will install
something if and only if "ubuntu-drivers list --gpgpu" has non-empty
output, but the logic of which of the things list returns gets installed
seems a bit non-trivial
The context for this is in the server installer, I want to say "we think
you should install nvidia-headless-no-dkms-470-server and linux-modules-
nvidia-470-server-generic", shall we go ahead and install them?
My current spike just says "there are some drivers you might want to
install, shall we install them?" which just seems a bit opaque
Alberto suggested a flag so that I could run "ubuntu-drivers list
--gpgpu --recommended" in the installer. I should just make very clear
that I'd want "ubuntu-drivers list --recommended" (i.e. without --gpgpu)
to work the same way :)
