minor issues with the wireless driver. This can be resolved in terminal with:
'sudo apt-get install linux-backports-modules-intrepid-generic' (without quotes) - wired lan works out of the box. Connect wired lan for this install.
This will add driver 'Support for 5xxx series of Atheros 802.11 wireless LAN cards'. enable this driver and deactivate the 'Support for Atheros 802.11' that is selected default. - reboot and atheros wireless is operational.

Video driver Geforce - choose driver 177.
