What I need to do is investigate from the terminal, check that the driver is present, attempt to activate it, and identify any rival, dysfunctional drivers that may be there unknown to me and still need blacklisting. If anyone feels like walking me through the code for all this, I hall be much obliged.
You can tell what driver is in use for the network card with lshw: `sudo lshw -C network` will give a listing of all the network cards in your system. In the configuration line for each one there will be an entry "driver=something".
