^^ This is probably your WiFi card. Could you please call lspci with -nn
again like this?

  lspci -k -nn

We see the device IDs then and can look for that in e.g. kernel code.

All those CS5536 around, maybe me using 'pata_cs5536' is not so wrong
here, although it isn't related to wifi of course. ;-)

Well, I'm a bit puzzled the driver is not loaded. Could you please try
this again?

  modprobe -v rt2800pci

Just to remind me, you're still trying with fli4l 3.10.x, right?
