Re: [Trisquel-users] Wi-Fi device not recognised on my PC

Trisquel's main repository has atheros-firmware. Debian's non-free repository  
has firmware-atheros. They're different packages. Magic Banana is referring  
to open-ath9k-htc-firmware, which is the free replacement for  
firmware-atheros. If you would like to use open-ath9k-htc-firmware in a  
stable version of Debian you'll have to build it via
