** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: linux-image-2.6.32-21-generic
  
  The tun module, needed by most (all?) VPN connections, is not included
  in generic kernel image any more.
  
  Searching for "tun.ko" via packages.ubuntu.com results in information
  file is only available in RT kernel and user-mode-linux. Until karmic
  koala the module was also available in generic image so VPN connections
  were possible.
  
  Did you forget to enable tun/tap config in generic lucid kernel or does
  it "work as designed" and we (thew ubuntu users) have to use another
  kernel package to get VPN working from lucid lynx on?
  
  Many thanks in advance!
  
  Regards,
  Marcel
