[Trisquel-users] trisquel policy on b43 drivers

[sascharehberg]

Hi there, I was trying to run a lenovo thinkpad with trisquel. I found out  
that my wireless card would only work with the b43 proprietary drivers. Even  
worse you cannot exchange that card against annother one without the computer  
being prevented from booting. In such a case - what do the rest of the free  
software community suggest? Not use wireless, switch to Ubuntu and install  
the proprietary drivers or throw the computer away? I wonder about your views  
on this...
