Jockey doesn't provide fglrx-updates

The attached patch seems to improve things in the log but fglrx-updates still doesn't show up in Jockey

You just committed that patch yourself, which fixes the jockey part.

The actual reason is that the fglrx-updates package does not have any "Modalias:" lines right now, so it won't match on any system. Given the package size it's definitively not just an empty stub. So this needs to be fixed there, adding a task for it.

The attachment "temp_fix.patch" of this bug report has been identified as being a patch. The ubuntu-reviewers team has been subscribed to the bug report so that they can review the patch. In the event that this is in fact not a patch you can resolve this situation by removing the tag 'patch' from the bug report and editing the attachment so that it is not flagged as a patch. Additionally, if you are member of the ubuntu-sponsors please also unsubscribe the team from this bug report.

This bug was fixed in the package jockey - 0.9.4-0ubuntu7

---------------
jockey (0.9.4-0ubuntu7) oneiric; urgency=low

  [ Alberto Milone ]
  * data/handlers/fglrx.py: Use the correct name for the module and for the
    package in fglrx.py. (LP: #855396)

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * jockey/oslib.py, package_header_modaliases(): Only consider packages for
    the system architecture. This avoids creating non-working default handlers
    for e. g. fglrx:i386 on an amd64 system. (LP: #855175)
  * Drop data/handlers/nouveau3d.py, it's installed by default now.

This bug was fixed in the package fglrx-installer-updates - 2:8.881-0ubuntu4

---------------
fglrx-installer-updates (2:8.881-0ubuntu4) oneiric; urgency=low

  * debian/rules:
    - Make sure to install the correct modaliases file so that
      the driver can be detected by Jockey (LP: #855396).

It looks like the bug isn't fixed yet:

:~$ jockey-text -l
kmod:fglrx - Video driver for the AMD graphics accelerators (Proprietary, Disabled, Not in use)
xorg:fglrx - ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX graphics driver (Proprietary, Disabled, Not in use)

This is with jockey - 0.9.4-0ubuntu7 and fglrx-installer-updates has the modaliases now.

See the attached log

The problem is that the -updates packages have a wrong Modalias: line:

Package: fglrx-updates
Modaliases: fglrx(pci:v0000...)

The module name should be "fglrx_updates", or "nvidia_current_updates", etc.

      which prevents recovery mode from working (LP: #854967).
