You will want the .deb package. Quote:
Code:
wget -N -t 5 -T 10 https://github.com/UbuntuForums/wireless-info/raw/master/wireless-info && \ Regards... |
If you are having problems with that release, it should not be unexpected as the system you are using is still in the test phase, that's what the 'beta' means so by downloading and installing it you have volunteered to test it for the developers. Problems like that are to be expected with a 'beta' release and the primary reason for an early release is so the developers can be informed and hopefully correct problems before the final release. So if you are unable to resolve it with help from members here, you might be better off waiting until the final release next month.

There is a working version of Skype in the Ubuntu archives.
You can install it with sudo apt-get install skype |
modem files
ok so copy it to wireless-info.txt located through file manager pcmanfm is that right

Technically you could get either. You can use alien to convert .RPM to .DEB.
$ sudo dpkg -i <package>.deb (to install the package, might need to repeat after next for success) $ sudo apt-get -f install (to grab any deps not installed) HTH |

Thank you for posting the results. For the most part, everything to me looks fine. However, I would like clarification of the above. Please open a terminal and post the results of... Code:
systemctl status NetworkManager Quote:
Can you explain more of how you're trying to log into your network? What are you seeing or not seeing? If you've tried to log in, what happened? Regards... |
Code:
ip a;ip r Note that the GENERAL.DEVICE: wlp2s0 has *NO* IP4.ADDRESS !!! Maybe some if?config/dhcp [Ubu=Deb] '?stuff?' is missing / not setup!! (I don't know the GUI config things, sorry) Yes, there's 2 'place concepts' for getting 'app' from: [distro] repo or [app] 'download' (I think 'repo' is usually 'better', but I'm 'Newbie' on this topic. Is skype ok now?) |
