Re: [Trisquel-users] Question about libreboot T400 and X200 laptops

This is because those "open source drivers" as you call them include  
proprietary junk inside of them, as Magic Banana says.

For an example, check out all of the stuff that gets ripped out in order to  
make Linux-libre:  
http://linux-libre.fsfla.org/pub/linux-libre/releases/4.4-gnu/linux-libre-4.4-gnu.log

(And this is just the standard kernel from kernel.org - The one used by  
Ubuntu contains even more than this because they add even more proprietary  
junk in!)
