Alternatively, we could tweak > deblobbing so that it produces a list of known-bad modules or > devices. I think automatically generating a list of nonfree modules would work, as long as we make sure we don't recommend that a user acquire them. Also, I tried to run linux-libre on my desktop and it booted but refused to login because it tried to load the nonfree wifi card. Could it be patched so that nonfree modules are ignored, and I could at least get a desktop without wifi? Everything else afaik is free hardware. (if this is a separate issue, I can make a bug report) --=20
