At the time we came up with this issue (feisty), several module packages had not been available for the -server kernel, therefore some things (especially GPUs and WLAN cards) could not have been run easily on a server kernel ;-((

This did not change with gutsy, but with hardy seems to have changed.
Was there an official change in the policies regarding e.g. the linux-restricted-modules and kernel packages?

Anyway, did anybody actually try to use e.g. nvidia-glx-*, fglrx*, ... together with hardy's server kernel?
