This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-drivers-common - 1:0.9.3
---------------
ubuntu-drivers-common (1:0.9.3) jammy; urgency=medium
* UbuntuDrivers/detect.py,
ubuntu-drivers:
- Provide helper functions for NVIDIA on the desktop:
o get_desktop_package_list()
o nvidia_desktop_pre_installation_hook()
o nvidia_desktop_post_installation_hook()
The new functions, which are now used by ubuntu-drivers
(only for the desktop i.e. "ubuntu-drivers install"),
allow reusing the hardware detection and the customisations
from ubuntu-drivers in other applications such as the
Software Properties UIsi (LP: #1942208).
- Add the "--recommended" option to the "list" command
(LP: #1952147).
This allows to show only the packages that will be
installed using auto-detection i.e. one specific
driver and its kernel module, instead of all the
compatible drivers.
This works with and without --gpgpu, yielding different
results.

Title:
no way to list drivers "ubuntu-drivers list --gpgpu" will install
Status in ubuntu-drivers-common package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
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 :)
