Question WiFi


I have booted bodhi by life system and found my WiFi and could
open a conection to the internet.
After installing bodhi on the harddisk, there is no WiFi.
How can I install the drivers or why they were not installed ?

Best greetings

Did you use the method explained at the Bodhi site using Network Manager, link below? If so, what happened? If not, how did you try to set up your wireless? If the method using Network Manager doesn't do the job, explain what happened and also post info on your wireless. You can do that by opening a terminal and entering the following, then hit the Enter key and post the output here: Command: inxi -n

The link below is to the Bodhi section of this site. You might have better luck posting there if you can't resolve your issue

It might also be useful to post which release of Bodhi you are using. If it 5.0, it is still in the testing stage and everything is not expected to work out of the box.

You probably need to install the firmware package for your adapter.

You can find out your wireless chipset by running the command lspci in a terminal. Depending you your distro, you may have to run the command as root.

You will likely need a temporary wired connection to resolve this issue.
