If your trouble has to do with i386/Jessie/wifi, I can assure you that it
does work. It's on my GoBook laptop (i686 with the i386 Debian Jessie
release) running XFCE4 with the WICD net manager. It switches happily
between Ethernet and wifi.

Sorta -- I need to fix up the routing table and /etc/resolv.conf sometimes.
Somebody (Comcast or Debian or WICD or me) could do a little better with
the wifi DHCP.
