Have you checked for missing firmware? Issue dmesg|less and search for the character string "firmware". For example g /firmware n The "g" takes you to the top, "/firmware" searches for the string "firmware", and "n" repeats the last search. Use "n" as often as necessary. Look for evidence that the kernel tried to load firmware but was unsuccessful. Use "q" to exit, of course. -- .''`.
