The driver is in the kernel, you need to install the firmware.

The driver was already installed as part of the Linux kernel. It just needed the non-free firmware to load into the device, which standard Debian does not install by default as a result of its commitment to free software. But Debian does make it available for those that need to use it.

Drivers and firmware are two different animals; don't confuse them.
