Public bug reported:
I did a fresh install of Kubuntu 8.10 (32-bit desktop CD) on my laptop.
Hardware drivers manager told me that maybe I should use some
proprietary drivers. It gave me 2 possible drivers. I selected the
recommend one and hit Enable driver -button. Something flashed quickly
on the screen. But then nothing seemed to have happened and there was no
change on the hardware drivers manager dialog.
I tried hitting Enable driver again. No good, nothing happened.
I was offline during this (and the whole installation, never connected).
Maybe it failed to get the driver? In any case there should be some
clear message for the user!!! Nothing just happened, not quite
professional :(
