"Disappear" ?  They've probably moved so as to be below the generic driver
packages - so you can't see them at the top level any more.

A specific ethernet driver package, for example, says "the generic ether
driver is my parent" - so it appears within "ethernet drivers" in the GUI
tree view.  But if the generic ether ain't there, it's an orhpan, so it
appears (inactive, so greyed out) at the top level.  When you add the
generic ether, it moves to its rightful place, hidden in the default view.
