Hello i need buy a new laptop, fully compatible with a free hardware, usually i use a dell n4030 and your wi-fi is not free, how i can install the library of Ubuntu? he (ubuntu) work with my wi-fi. I know about the project trisquel, and your philosopy, but is temporaly, i don't like too, but i can't buy a wireless usb, in Brasil is expensive. Or, exist a free solution? a free driver, my wirelees card is a broadcom.

From a terminal run:

lspci

Paste the output here. Then we can tell you if there is a free driver. Most likely there is no free solution for your wifi card and you will have to replace it or use an external USB card.
