Thanks, man.
I tinkered around a bit with this, but as I don't have the wifi/bt board available yet, I tested with an USB Wifi-dongle I've had lying around (a Netgear WNA-3100M). After the updates, my kernel actually replied that WTF-message and prompted me to install realtek-firmware package.
I DuckDuckWent there from Midori and found this realtek-firmware install howto which worked wonders. I unplugged and replugged the device after the package was installed (sudo apt-get install realtek-firmware) and woop-de-doo! WiFi!
