Imagine: Last time I used unix was in 1992. Now, I have an 8 year old PC that I have been using as a printer server for my little family network at home here in Oslo. It was running win98, and even with nothing more to do than spooling print jobs, it never managed to run more than a couple of days before it crashed completely. I vaguely remembered the typical 200+ days continuous uptime of my 92 unix workstation, and decided to install ubuntu on the box.
Everything went extremely smooth (jee, unix has evolved for the last 15 years), until I plugged in the Sparklan usb wifi adapter. I guess it's called kernel panic these days. I could see that this problem was deep indeed, and considered it a bit of an unfair slap to deliver to a newbee. So, with severely outdated unix experience and two hours of googling, I find pype's post, only hours old. His fix solved the problem completely.
