I had to repartition the system because removing gnome was not completed well and made the system buggy. But all is well now in a system hardware very much like yours.

I install wicd, plus wifi driver and supplicant; the latter two were not installed as I was informed they already exist. But still no wireless. First, iceweasel: Perhaps what works very well for me, may be of help. On my jessie (upgraded from wheezy) old core2 duo laptop with 2G ram, iceweasel runs quite nicely with the noscript addon. 2 instances/profiles of iceweasel are up, one with 7 open tabs at the moment. So first I'd suggest you run iceweasel without addons to check performance. You could try chromium browser which also runs fine for me. Next, wireless: xfce is also my DE. For wireless, I use network-manager. wicd is not installed. Your log shows wireless is up and you have network-manager: Jun 2 08:36:53 spree60e NetworkManager[526]: info Activation (wlan0) successful, device activated.
