Where can I find this package? I am downloading the 6.0.1 iso now and I will
come back and post whether or not the wireless works out of the box or not,
thank you guys for all of the help
All war is, but class struggle
Hey guys the 6.0.1 iso works with my wireless out of the box! Thank you for
all of the help in assisting me with this issue
No, the saucy LTS enablement stack is in the toutatis repository. Take a
look, just type apt-cache search lts-saucy
Or 3.11.
He was saying he got errors when building on a 64-bit system. Probably just
didn't have the build dependencies installed. But yeah, there's no reason to
build it since it runs on the xtensa processor in the chip. You can put the
files in /lib/firmware, but it's certainly better to
open-ath9k-htc-firmware is firmware, not a driver. And it builds perfectly on
64-bit, as long as you have everything needed to build gcc and binutils.
Where is this completed and readily available 6.01 ISO that you are all
telling us to download? I checked https://trisquel.info/en/download and all I
see is the original release from a year ago. Same goes for the official
mirror at http://mirror.fsf.org/trisquel-images/
I actually feel bad
Well... the idea was to release updates to the 12.04 image. I'd argue
definitely to add the xserver component (given Canonical did all the work for
it) and the kernel.
Ruben did half the work. There is a 3.5 kernel in the official repository and
there is an updated ISO with ar9271 firmware
He shouldn't need to build anything though... the firmware runs on the device
itself. He just needs to plop it in the /lib/firmware directory and upgrade
the kernel to 3.5. Either jason's kernel (jxself) or the one in the official
repository (as mentioned above).
Don't use the old 3.5 kernel. The Saucy kernel (linux-generic-lts-saucy) is
there and deblobbed from Ubuntu. This needs to be included with the updated
ISO (along with the Saucy xserver) with the 6.01 ISO.
That's not in the 6 repository. 7 is still unstable. It's based on Ubuntu
14.04 and that isn't even finished. I think the other on this list is linking
to the newer 7 stuff.
So I install the apt-offine and it worked just fine, could you provide a link
to the linux-generic-lts-saucy .deb package? and the open-ath9k-htc-firmware
driver? The driver is on git, but when I follow the documentation, I get an
error when I build it and I have tried on multiple 64 bit
Trisquel 6.01 has the firmware included out of the box. Might be easier to go
that route.

I have a wireless card with the chipset AR9721 which uses the htc_9721 and
htc_9010 drivers which in a 32 bit system can simply be cp'ed over to
/lib/firmware/ and reboot and the wireless will work fine from there. But the
problem is, is that my IBM ThinkPad R60 is 64 bit compatible, so this
The firmware that runs on AR9271 has a different architecture than any
Trisquel system (it's Xtensa). Both 32-bit and 64-bit Trisquel systems
use the same firmware files.

Yes, that's right. The firmware does not run on the host CPU, it runs on the
chip itself. So it doesn't matter if you run 32 or 64-bit Trisquel.
Since you don't have internet, get the apt-offline deb package from a
computer with internet and install it on your offline computer with:
