Finally! I use the Mozilla Stable PPA and this is big news with one less dependence on a PPA. This is also good for Trisquel when they tweak Abrowser and can have backported Firefox ready for Trisquel 4 and above.

Hi, megurineturilli. Is ath9k in the output of lsmod? Does the the ath9k module load at all? Or did you build it into the kernel when you compiled it?

ath9k is in trisquel kernel (/lib/modules/2.6.38-13-generic/kernel/drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k), and probably is not in the kernel you're using. I think that's the problem.

I think jbar is probably right. You can still build the ath9k driver now and load it as a module. The source can be downloaded here: http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Drivers/ath9k Next time you build the kernel, if you use make menuconfig to generate your .config file, you can go to the

I think the way you don't break compatibility is to add Trisquel to the string. Although depending on how sites do the checking you might get identified as having an incompatible browser/operating system still. Ubuntu isn't terribly well supported either amongst sites that do this kind of
