Isn't that used by systemd, if so won't work in alphaos
alphaos uses sysvinit
I also use iwlwifi. For me it works out of the box
/usr/lib/modules/3.14.1-ALPHAOS/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwlwifi.ko
is present in alpha_15.sb
Code: Select all
lspci -v | grep iwlwifi
Kernel driver in use: iwlwifi
Kernel modules: iwlwifi

It should work. I load modules from there
I have
and get
Code: Select all

cpufreq_powersave 934 0
I have wifi card
Code: Select all

03:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation Centrino Wireless-N 1030 [Rainbow Peak] (rev 34)
I don't know why it doesn't work for you?
I tried building the backports version and
alphaos original
139K
backports
257K
So I guess maybe it is old version or sim liked to keep the size down
My vote is with you, the kernel should be compiled with Intel Wireless 7260 driver already enabled.
I did hack up an sb containing the backports version of iwlwifi
it seems to work for me,
put it in alphaos/modules directory (a. k. a. dir form were you boot)
OBS! for kernel 3.14.1wireless_iwlwifi_full.sb
