Hi people,
I just got me a new Notebook from MSI (modell is CR500x). This machine also uses this WLAN-Chip.

Because of the harddrive being empty without any system installed on it, I installed LinuxMint64bit Gnome-Edition. But then I found, that the same thing affects me too also like the others.

The kernel-module 3090 is loaded, but can't be used for some reason. So I also can't see any wireless networks.

So I would be happy, if anybody could get me a solution.

For more information, I enclose you the output of the Script "CollectNWdata".

Perhaps this will give you more information and somebody could perhaps help me to make wireless working again, because this chip is an onboard- wireless-chip without any hardware-switch on it.
I also have checked BIOS already to find a possible hint. But BIOS on this machine does not offer any option for enabeling or even disabling of wireless.

Thank you in advance,
Linuxexperte
