Seems to be a config issue. CONFIG_WIRELESS_EXT needs to be enabled. Question is: do we need that driver anyway?

inxi lists Card-1: Realtek RTL8111/8168/8411 I can check in the afternoon if it might work without the extramodule, but I doubt it...

@oberon2007: this is a different chip-set. However if still needed we can modify the kernel config as needed. That is why I needed to know if all hardware got detected properly. When I got my machine I can check also. Currently it is just guessing.

Well we don't need it anyway. Closing this issue.
