minus-squareStritlinkfedilink3•5 months ago Interestingly, the Bluetooth did work under PureOS but I never figured out why. The bluetooth probably needs a non-free firmware blob, as most of them do.
minus-square@Churbleyimyam@lemm.eelinkfedilink1•5 months agoYeah maybe. I would expect PureOS to come with less non-free components though, being that it’s endorsed by the FSF. I was quite surprised that BT was not working after switching to Debian.
