00:19 <wpwrak> hmm, fun things when trying to convert an ubuntu desktop into a server installation: all went remarkably smoothly, except: kernel does't seem to know the wlan chip, and - to add a little challenge - has no keyboard driver.

05:20 <kyak> and wlan - it's for humble users

08:16 <wpwrak> kyak: yeah, i must have totally misread the zeitgeist. you don't pay attention for a couple of days, and poof ...

08:19 <wpwrak> googling suggests that there may be some linux-image-extra-*-generic package missing. the fun bit will be to install it. ought to be possible to do it from the boot command line, right ? :)
