The Unknown strings come from software-properties so this probably
doesn't need fixing in ubuntu-drivers-common.
1359 widget = Gtk.Label.new("{}:
{}".format(self.devices[device].get('vendor', _('Unknown')),
self.devices[device].get('model', _('Unknown'))))
The devices detected are the following:
ipdb> self.devices
{'cpu-microcode.py': {'drivers': {'intel-microcode': {'from_distro': True,
'free': False}}}}
Having said that I don't know how software-properties would determine
the right vendor and device. Additionally, I think all the devices here
will have the same problem.
$ ls /usr/share/ubuntu-drivers-common/detect/
arm-gles.py cpu-microcode.py open-vm-dkms.py sl-modem.py
So maybe those should return more than just the package to use.

Title:
Software properties gtk implies my cpu is unknown and not working.

Bug description:
To reproduce install lubuntu 415 i386 on a t6500 core 2 duo cpu. I know I am
installing 32 bit on 64 but it will show like in with both a braodcom 4322
which I have not yet installed the prorpietary driver and this intel cpu. Open
additional drivers from the menu in lxde.

Description: Ubuntu Vivid Vervet (development branch)
Release: 15.04
https://gist.github.com/dabcbbc9bdcb7ed8d87d is the hardware tracker profile
for this laptop.
I expected software-properties-gtk to not say my processor is unkown
and not working because I have not installed the latest microcode.
Instead it said this device which can use the proprietary intel
microcode driver is unknown and not working and the only device this
makes sense to be is the cpu.
I have a screenshot attached of the messages that make no sense.
