[Bug 912366] [NEW] [Oneiric] jockey.backend.BackendCrashError and no drivers

 

Public bug reported:

I was trying to check for drivers and the jockey-gtk would never give me
any options, so I tried the text version.   The basic error seems to be
that it doesn't think it was able to update the repositories.  from my
basic at the look at the python it looks like it's not giving a return
back from updating the repositories and then throws the
BackendCrashError.  all my repositories seem to be updating properly, am
I missing something?  info below.  when I was searching for related bugs
I couldn't find anything that seemed the same or really similar.
