Hello! I just wanted to say that I really appreciate the work you guys
have done here. I've wanted to use a strictly FSF friendly distro for a
long time, and this seems to be just that distro. I'm using Ubuntu
Dapper currently, though I've been using GNU/Linux for a number of years
now, with a variety of distros.
I had a question. I currently only have wireless net access available
to me, and as such need the wireless in my laptop to work. I'm using
ndiswrapper and the broadcom drivers right now (yech!) because that's my
internal setup (Dell Inspiron 2200 Laptop). Was thinking about buying a
PCMCIA wireless card that is more GPL friendly, and was looking for
recommendations?
I hear the atheros chipsets have a free but unstable driver, not sure
about others.

I really want to install gnewsense now, but without ndiswrapper and the
broadcom drivers (I have the drivers, but I'm assuming you guys probably
frown on using ndiswrapper, understandably of course), I'm outta luck
for internet access.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Oh, and one more thing, I don't know who your artwork designers are, but
kudos for a beautiful distribution.
Hoping to be using gnewsense soon!
-Matt
