On my Windows 7 installation an Intel HD Graphics 3000 card/driver shows. However in Ubuntu 12.04, System → Administration → Hardware Drivers shows no proprietary drivers available for the system.

I have tried running the following:

sudo apt-get install mesa-utils

Which results in the graphics driver incorrectly identifying itself as Sandy Bridge Mobile.

Running the following results in no change

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xorg-edgers/ppa
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo reboot

Does anybody have any information on this behavior?

Sandy Bridge was the code name for the 2nd Generation Intel® Core™ Processors (i3, i5, i7)

It is being identified correctly if you have a laptop, maybe not if it's a desktop but I doubt it will matter.
