WiFi quit

I had this happen on the last kernel upgrade and discovered that the restricted-extras package did not upgrade. Had to manually reinstall.

Subject: WiFi quit 


On my laptop with Ubuntu 8.10 installed I was able to get the WiFi 
working with ease. But a week ago it came up with no choice to use WiFi. 
It works fine on wired Internet but the WiFi no longer shows up. 

I have been trying to get it working using the VPN things you get 
with NetworkManager Applet 0.7.0 using the proper LEAP security things 
but to date it will not work. Is there something else I need to 
check/fix? The WiFi does not even show up as a choice any more so 
something I have forgot is needed.
