I wasn't sure and thought it was best to keep it separate to start with
(my initial version did use the same template). It's arguable that there
might be a slightly different emphasis in the Debian text versus the
Ubuntu text since Ubuntu installs a few non-free kernel drivers by
default (hence Default: true).
I don't mind it being merged if that turns out to make sense. The fewer
templates to translate, the better.
