No, I need it?
Does this card have opensource driver?

Probably I'm wrong but this card should have opensource driver.

My kernel is 3.16.0-4-amd64

http://www.intel.com/support/wireless/wlan/sb/CS-034398.htm

"Driver development is done in the open source Linux community. [...]
Development support is only available through the open source community
mailing lists. "


Intel® Wireless 7260 (3.10) is listed on
http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/iwlwifi

I'd like to use only FOSS so if I need proprietary driver, I'll change
my wireless card.

Please can you help me to understanding if is Open Drivers available?

Thanks for your help.
