so I looked up netwrkmanager and founf THIS:

My Card is not recognized by NetworkManager and I am running Debian or 
Ubuntu:

Debian and Ubuntu modified NetworkManager so that it would not manage 
any devices listed in /etc/network/interfaces. If you open this file 
and comment out the lines for the interfaces you want to manage and 
reboot NetworkManager will see them. **Do not comment out l0**
