Hi thank you for your reply, I do not have a lot of problem with
wireless cards, but why we have to make it harder to people starting
to use LINUX, It seams that other Distros do NOT have this problems
about legal or they are not afraid (Ubuntu, freespire, SLED 10, Mepis,
and others) the problem is that there are to many Distros and when
people have problems with one they do not bother to fix the problem
they just try another Distro, If we want to make Fedora Core Bigger we
have to start thinking in a diff. way.
It has been adequately explained why Fedora Core / Extras don't carry
non-free software or why Fedora Core isn't shipping out-of-tree drivers.
The fact that other distributions (such as Ubuntu) include non-free
software / out-of-tree drivers is hardly on topic on the development
list for Fedora - it's just sad that they're effectively are undoing a
lot of hard work done by Fedora and a few others that care about free
software.
Please take this elsewhere. Thanks.
