Thank you for your reply. The R61 has the Middleton Bios firmware, so the whitelist is gone. I'm not interested in the USB wifi stuff, for reasons of loss. I know that Atheros, in 2008 began working with FSF to make their 9k wifi chipsets FSF compatible and I think that this kind of company needs support as well. So, if someone can tell me the correct Atheros wifi card to buy for the Thinkpad R61, then I'd really appreciate it. Trisquel 8.0 is alpha, but does that mean that there's no work around for my problem?
