It sounds like the version they were using didn't have the right drivers in the build. Seems a lot of work to go to just to get new drivers.

  • If the source is available somewhere, but it's not in your distro's repos, there's probably a good reason for that. Ideally just get better hardware. A WiFi chip is usually something like $20-30 and is replaceable on most laptops and desktops. An audio card can be bypassed with USB or a PCIe add-in card. That's pretty much everything this might apply to.
