Lenovo G510
Hello everyone, I don't know where I can get this information.
I'll buy a Lenovo G510 with two cards (Intel + AMD) and Broadcom wi-fi
driver. Can I use Trisquel on this hardware without problems? I need
info about open-source drivers for hardware and some info about EFI/UEFI
cooperation with Trisquel.
Thank You for help

Hi there! I'm afraid the answer is mostly no. You're guaranteed to have a bad experience with an AMD GPU. If you were hoping to switch between the AMD and the Intel GPUs that will at very least require tinkering and might not work. The Broadcom wifi likely will not work.
Perhaps if you haven't bought the machine already you might want to reconsider. What kind of use will it be for?
You should instead opt for using Intel integrated graphics and an Atheros wireless card.
Check the http://h-node.org website for information on hardware compatible with Trisquel. h-node even lists laptops that work with Trisquel. :)
