Yup, that was indeed the solution. I added --force-install to the install line in the script. That did the trick. BTW, these drivers are just for USB, not wireless. From what I learned for wireless you need to compile some source code. Not me, not now.<br>

</div></div>LPIA = Low Power Intel Architecture. It's i386-compatible, but<br>
optimized for lower power consumption. IOW, it's Atom-specific. You<br>
can safely install i386 packages with --force-architecture to dpkg. Not<br>
sure what you'd need for their install.sh.<br>
