net_applet - Monitor Network/network accounting does nothing
If clicking on "Monitor Network" does nothing, you may need to install vnstat and net_monitor packages. Then you can see the traffic used if you have enabled it for that interface via drakconnect.
Code:lsusb, command not found
If you need lsusb you should install usbutils.
So far. Not enough information in this thread to make any suggestions.Quote:
some hardware doesn't work because it needs firmware
If your hardware doesn't work, you can try to install the kernel-firmware-nonfree package that is in the nonfree repositories and then reboot your computer. After rebooting, check if your hardware is now working. Note : you need this package for the firmware needed by some wifi network card, etc...
Might want to start here to fatten up this thread with some info.
