Yes, this is the entry for it, and it is using the driver.

Ok - it looks like it is detecting the network device, and trying to
start it. I find it strange that drakconnect does not find it. Time to
try something else...

Run "ifconfig -a" and see if it shows eth0 or wlan0. If it does, we can
work from there. The -a option of ifconfig will show all interfaces,
even if they are not configured. If it doesn't show ether of them, then
let us know what it does show. You should see at least the lo interface.
