[Trisquel-users] I bought a new WiFi card for my laptop that was listed as working on hnode, but it doesn't work in Trisquel. :(

I bought a RTL8723BE from eBay hoping that it would enable my laptop to work  
with Trisquel. I tested that it does indeed work in mainline Ubuntu (which is  
still on the hard drive) but when I boot into Trisquel from a USB drive, it  
still won't see my WiFi hardware. :( This card was listed on hnode as able to  
work with free software, so I really thought it'd work.


If it turns out I misunderstood hnode and actually bought a card that doesn't  
play with free software, what recommendations do you have for one that does?
