Public bug reported:
upgrading breaks networking, due to Broadcom firmware
Specifically:
install 8.4 Hardy Heron AMD64 beta KDE4 on Compaq R4000 laptop
go to all the trouble of getting wireless Broadcom networking working
apt-get upgrade
reboot as prompted
perhaps because I installed some extra packages, like linux-xen
networking stops working
This is because there's a new kernel and the modules don't get
copied/linked over.
Ok, that wasn't too hard to fix.
Windows doesn't have this bug, not for minor updates at least.
