Thanks. :-)  Sorry about the order of responses, there are parts of cyberspace
where "top-quoting" is a major faux pas.

There are no indicator lights on the machine, so it's pretty much trial-and-error
on those keypresses.  Thanks to Tom, though, I've been able to see a message
at one of the consoles that at first says "unrecognized keypress" but soon
thereafter says something like "wlan switched off" (per NetworkManager).

No joy yet, though -- problem seems to be something else; see next reply
for more details on that.
