Ubuntu applies a (huge) patch to the vanilla kernel, that tunes some
files and also adds a bunch of extra modules. In hardy (and therefor in
Trisquel and gNewSense), there is a linux-ubuntu-modules package, but
for intrepid onwards they are including those modules in the main
linux-image-2.6.x package.

The way our distro works (and this is valid for gNS too) is to get the
original ubuntu kernel with the patches, and deblob it, so we need to
analyze this files. I'm including the result of applying deblob-check
against them.

Please, don't, I'm sure they contain non-free bits by now!
