Re: [Trisquel-users] Deblobbed iwlwifi in 4.10+ libre kernels

The Libre Kernel is a Kernel that is clean of blobs or possible non-free  
firwares also in the repositories.
So if in any case you need install any firware you are alone to do it  
manually with or without any help of people on foruns and without  technical  
help (documentation) of the distros that uses Libre Kernel .
However if you really needs make up a firware detection on your system you  
can try install the firmware manually by a source , put some speciall  
attention on the versions of kernels that the firware is compatible and  
works, You can install firmwares on Libre Kernels also as in Kernel non-free,  
but the Libre Kernel maybe needs more configs to some firwares work for  
example - dependencies more aditional configs on files etc... .
Remember - when you do it - you lost your freedom or you are in the way to  
get it.
