I'm using the most recent version of Trisquel mini and attempting to connect to the internet using a PCI card (Asus N15) and can't figure it out. Not sure if my card is incompatible with Linux or I need to install drivers or if I'm stupid to figure out the network connection menu.

Any pointers or advice greatly appreciated!

Also while searching for fixes I saw a guy mentioning that Blender doesn't work in the current version of Trisquel. Never used Blender before but interested in starting so I'm curious if this will or has been fixed.

I couldn't find the Asus N15 on H-Node-- it seems to me that it isn't a free software-friendly card.
I'd reccomend a wifi USB dongle from www.thinkpenguin.com
Blender works for me on Trisquel 7 (The latest release), and I'm unaware of any compatibility issues or some such thing.

I'll check out compatible adapters then. I'm going to keep working on it though until I can order one.

Thanks for the advise assistant.

The only two vendors that guarantee that Linux-libre can drive all their hardware are ThinkPenguin and Tehnoetic:

or ebay wifi adapter Atheros series AR9xxx or AR5xxx and replace your N15 with one of those (5 or 10 dollars and no usb thingy permanently hanging on your lappy)
