Ugh... Thanks for the "space conservation".<br>
<br>
So voila, I have networking and a desktop, but now I have an
issue I saw in the desktop installer the pegs a kworker thread @
110% cpu on one core constantly, and will freeze if my monitor
acpi suspends. Geezus, now what!<br>
<br>
Black cloud man, they follow me around. I really don't think
it's too much to ask for raid or full-disk crypto in a desktop
installation.<br>
<br>
Debian doesn't do EFI from what I could find, and most of the
variants are more immature than even ubuntu's desktop installer
to provide advanced raid/crypto/lvm capability on install.<br>

I installed Ubuntu server 13.10 on it as the desktop
installer was unstable, and installed fine enough. Now, my
kernels are straight missing most of my drivers for things
like my network cards and who knows what else. If I install
header packages, they are there, but otherwise mia.<br>
<br>
I've never seen such a broken kernel install before, did the
initrd system change on here? Is there some additional
package set it needs now installed to see an atheros atl1c
driver gig nic? Even the intel driver for the wlan nic is
missing, so it's not just an "atheros" thing. It works fine
with the server generic kernel's initrd - really flippin
befuddling.<br>
<br>
Backstory:<br>
<br>
Because ubuntu's desktop installer is so broken and
incomplete for 13.10, I had to resort to using server to get
my normal disk setup working using raid, crypto, and lvm.
After wasting a week with the desktop installer(s), at
least I could get this to install clean, aside from it not
creating a crypttab properly on install that consumed my
morning.<br>
<br>
This was after spending almost a week trying to make any
form of ubuntu work on it, getting so pissed and spending
another few just to learn Arch, realized that all in all I'd
rather have a deb-based system, so went back again to try
server to at least install. I'm really wondering why...<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance!<br>
