Some non-free firmware has been made to work with Debian. Though this firmware is not at all a part of Debian, standard Debian tools can be used to install it. This firmware has varying licenses which may prevent you from using, modifying, or sharing it.
Please choose whether you want to have it available anyway.
Use non-free firmware?
