Tommy_CZ, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better.
As per https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/Includes/Jockey Jockey is for
restricted, proprietary drivers. As per the provided link
http://www.kernellabs.com/blog/?p=1378 the driver is GPL. Hence, it
would not be appropriate to offer the driver via Jockey. Instead, it
should be included in the kernel directly. From the link it looks like
they are working on getting it submitted upstream. However, it would be
nice if someone did so by following
http://kernelnewbies.org/UpstreamMerge . If you submit a patch, please
post the link so we may track it. Thank you for your understanding.
