Good afternoon linux guru's,
I'm a brand new 2 week old babe to linux, so i need some guidance please. About 2 weeks ago I installed Mint 16 cinnamon on an old Dell Dimension-8300 I had laying around the house that had XP on it. I was experiencing some hang ups and freezes with that system so after doing a little research and decided to give linux lite a try. I love this OS to death and will keep it, but I'm having trouble configuring my wireless USB adapter. I managed to get it working on Mint 16 after some trial and error, but I can't seem to get it to work in LL.
I installed ndiswapper through synaptic (think that's what its called) and was able to get the driver installed, but I'm getting Fatal, module not found error after install, and I can't seem to get it configured to even view wireless networks available to select my router. All this worked just fine in Mint, so I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong.
The wireless adapter I'm using is a Netgear N600, model WMDA3100v2. Any help would be appreciated.
Mike
