Not too long ago I installed Mint onto a laptop that turned out to have a network card by Broadcom, which doesn’t have Linux support, so that didn’t work. I’m going to upgrade my currently Windows PC to Mint at the end of Win10 support in October, and I want to be sure I don’t have any hardware that is incompatible with Linux. Which manufacturers are obstinate like that?

    these cards are about $ 5-12 and i pull them from junk laptops all the time

    not the “easiest” thing to solve but well within the abilities of somebody who can build a PC
