Ok, So I finally decided to go with Linux. I installed Kubuntu, which is basically ubuntu except with unbuntu is gnome, and the one I'm using is KDE. So everything is going fine, I installed it, I started running some commands and working with it. Now I decided to use a couple usb devices to see if it would work. Then I needed to connect to the internet.
But I put in my wireless card, and it wouldn't work. I tried configuring it, and nothing worked. So I decided to use wired, and yet still nothing. I try to configure, but i have to use the root account, problem is, that won't work either. Any Body use this same OS or have experience or idea of the problem? I looked it up, and none of the soulutions I found worked or they weren't about what my problem was. |

What type of Internet connection do you have? Did you try setting it up when you installed Ubuntu? What kind of wireless card and Ethernet card or modem do you have? (When you install it, there should be a screen that detects/prompts you for network settings.)
