Difficulty in loading iwlwifi network driver in Parabola
I'm having a problem in loading the driver for my Thinkpad X200's Intel Ultimate-N 5300.
I'm flagged to the driver in particular in my efforts to establish a wireless connection by the facts that ethernet connection is perfectly functional, that wireless works perfectly when booting from an Arch (not Parabola) live image, that lspci returns no kernel module:
[m@parry ~]$ lspci -vnnk

My attempt to find the driver landed me on this page, which rather unhelpfully told me that my device is supported and yet omitted this particular one from the list of drivers on the same page. As the driver was clearly present on the Arch live image, I (perhaps somewhaty ignorantly) copied that image's /lib/firmware/ directory to my own, to no avail.
What am I doing wrong?
