Bug#777700: (no subject)

[Tomas Pospisek <tpo@sourcepole.ch>]

reassign 777700 linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64
thanks

Since Debian is preparing to release the next version of its distribution 
I guess that the linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64 from the Debian wheezy 
distribution will very probably not ever backport support for and thus 
autodetect your RTL8723AE wireless lan card.

As such I think this bugreport could be closed as is, since there's 
nothing else to do.

What you, perihana, could however do, is to test the coming "Debian 
jessie" release whether it works with your card.

You can find installation and live media for that purpose here:

https://www.debian.org/CD/

Please report back on whether you had success with your card with jessie

Alternatively you could try a backports kernel and respective realtek 
firmware, which *does* support your card:

https://packages.debian.org/wheezy-backports/firmware-realtek

Please let us know, thanks,
*t
