Hi.

I've installed a deltah system and been surprised to find my wifi working.

I believe these files may be non free:

mstevens@mstevens-laptop:/lib/firmware/2.6.24-26-generic$ ls iwl*
iwlwifi-3945-1.ucode iwlwifi-3945.ucode iwlwifi-4965-1.ucode iwlwifi-4965.ucode iwlwifi-5000-1.ucode
mstevens@mstevens-laptop:/lib/firmware/2.6.24-26-generic$ dpkg -S iwlwifi-3945-1.ucode
linux-ubuntu-modules-2.6.24-26-generic: /lib/firmware/2.6.24-26-generic/iwlwifi-3945-1.ucode

My research suggests these files are nonfree:
