Ya, I know this. I do need to run VMs though. XEN sadly stopped supporting
older devices.
Plus, I've heard that it is difficult to find decent batteries for these
devices.
> Having free drivers is not enough. Most non-Atheros WLAN cards do have
free/libre drivers. However, those free drivers can't work without non-free
firmware.
Mainly, just wanting to make sure that OSes like Trisquel will run.
I'de also like to get as free'd as possible.
