That was the sort of thing I thought it would probably be... the developers
making things "cleaner" by removing stuff...

I am not sure if I am dreaming but do I not remember that at one stage
Ubuntu used to notice drivers it didn't have and offer to download/install
them from the web?

If I get the machine onto an RJ45 lead is there a possibility the OS could
still do this?
