Hi
I have a problem with this wireless card on my laptop
Network manager recognize it, allow me to scan , but i can't connect, network manager is blocked to one ball.
Also, this remind me a bug that i had with ubuntu jaunty, the version of network manager was to old, and it was the same problem.
Working great on Fedora 11
Working great on Ubuntu Karmic
Can you update network manager to a least 0.7.996 please?

It may very well be a version problem. The next version of Trisquel is very near, so that may solve it for you, or you could just install the latest network manager release from source.

Ok thanks :)
I have some questions so :
-Will they use Nouveau as Nvidia driver?
-Will they do an updater for 3.0 => Newest ver?
-How can i update my NetworkManager on the actual Trisquel (from source yeah of course ^^, but is there a tutorial?)
Thanks

- I wasn't aware that they had excluded it, but then again I use an ATI card. But if they don't, there's nothing stopping you from installing it yourself.
- It's supposed to be sometime in January (each Trisquel release is 3 months after the concurrent Ubuntu release.
- You have a few ways to go about it. You could simply wait for the upcoming Trisquel 4.0. Or you could install the newest version, 7.2, from the source package (http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/NetworkManager/0.7/NetworkManager-0.7.2.tar.gz), but then it won't be automatically updated when the next version is released.
The best way to keep a current version is from the PPA on Launchpad, which for network-manager is hosted at https://launchpad.net/~network-manager/+archive/ppa. Start by opening up Software Sources, going to the Third-Party Applications tab, and adding the line "deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/network-manager/ppa/ubuntu karmic main", then another entry that says "deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/network-manager/ppa/ubuntu karmic main". Now, open the terminal and type "sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys BC8EBFE8", which inputs this program's security signing key. Finally, type "sudo apt-get update" and then "sudo apt-get install network-manager". That should do it.

Isn't this a freedom risk? Wouldn't it be better to install the appropriate
package, downloading it only and risking only the freedom of that package
and not the liberty of the whole distro?

I can't say I understand what you are talking about. All the software in Trisquel's repository is verified 100% free software, and this distinction applies to any and all released versions of such software.
Even if you chanced a package that somehow violated its own license, or included non-free code, which is very unlikely, you could just uninstall it and remove it from your third party sources.
