I'm not sure what to do here. You are saying that jockey should be used
to determine availability of a better graphics driver (which I think is
sane), but at the same time it shouldn't do anything?

No, that's what it does now.
But better is not objective here.
The radeon driver may be inferior to the fglrx in terms of 3D games but it's
the only one that suspends/hibernates for me.
So jockey
Jockey doesn't propose to install fglrx if ati/radeonhd is already
running, since that supports composite now. But in order to find out
which driver is currently being used, whether it supports composite, and
whether a new one is needed (currently for nvidia), jockey needs to run,
of course. Thus

Jockey can be used detect the driver in use for all I care but I can not
believe this is taking 9 seconds (just
closing the bug, there is no reason why gnome-control-center should
duplicate this code, doing that check in jockey should be just as quick,
if it's not a request should be opened against jockey

Is it OK to re-use this report for that?
