rebootin

how do check
im new to linux
lspci -nnk | grep "Network controller"
should be close enoughall at once?
yes, this pipes lspci output into grep, which finds the line "Network controller" is on and prints it
will it take a bit?
no
oh
it did nothing
so the wifi card might not be detected
ah
you can try and upload the full output of lspci and see if its hidden
lspci -vvv | fpaste

Is your computer a desktop or a laptop
USB ones i can get on amazon
desktop
if desktop, what is the motherboard
its a gateway all in one from 2009
idk
ill have to look
If you can get the model number we can try to find what wireless card it has
ok
then hopefully in theory just
modprobe and load the correct driveri looked up the model num and saw this on newegg
💀
ik
its bad
im js trina get this thing to run sum
we just want to find which driver to load
ok
to do that we kinda need the model number of the wifi card
shit
something like RTL8852BE
LM823
thats one i found online
try
sudo modprobe rtlwifi
the LM823 apparently uses a RTL8188EUmk
although in theory that driver should already be loaded
