I believe restarting your computer or shutting it down/ turning it on was
really enough.

with debian the driver looks for the firmware and then if it can't find it,
it says "possible missing firmware".
Before you test Trisquel do a full shutdown of the computer. Don't just
reboot from Ubuntu or the firmware will still be loaded.
Obviously, Ubuntu's kernel is full of blobs (proprietary software), Mint,
Lubuntu, Kubuntu...too.
No, usually kernel loads needed drivers/firmwares at boot, or when something
is being plugged-in.

Sure, all wifi cards work in Ubuntu for its kernel is full full full full of
proprietary firmware, so when you plug in an adapter that needs proprietary
firmware it will work because that proprietary blob is there in the kernel,
it's loaded
I have a Dell desktop with Wifi card where there is Wifi without firmware,
but Bluetooth doesn't work.
But are the M.2. cards actually working without proprietary software or is
there some software stored on a flash chip (other than the basic stuff on the
regular Mini PCIE cards) that is
Most of the stuff on h-node is wrong in regards to bluetooth working. It just
appears to "work" because someone booted the card on an OS with the
proprietary firmware first, and then booted Trisquel. As the proprietary
firmware is retained in memory for quite some time it may really appear
does bluetooth work?
The WiFi will work fine. Bluetooth, on the other hand, will require nonfree
firmware. If you don't need Bluetooth it is not a problem.
Hi Guys,
I want to change my current Wifi Card on a X200 with Libreboot. I need the
2,4 and the 5 GHz Dual Band because the Wifi repeater at my parents home uses
dual band to get more speed.
In Ebay they sold the Foxconn T77H348.02 with a "Atheros AR9462 AR5B22"
chipset. The cards have
