Hello everyone,
I am having a problem with my Ubuntu Mate desktop crashes when i attempt to connect to wifi… I changed donles(previous dongle broke) and now when i attempt to connect to wifi my PC locks up (freezes)
Is there a way to ensure i have the generic drivers? i had installed specific drivers for my previous dongle…
Thanks
Hi,
restart your rig and go into “Recovery Mode” then activate “Network” and run “root”, type the following commands and see if that fixes the problem for you (This option requires a working cable network connection):
sudo apt-get --fix-missing install
The above command downloads and installs any missing packages on your system.
sudo apt-get --fix-broken install
The above command downloads and installs any broken dependencies on your system.
Hope it helps!.
Thanks! That worked!! 
. Well, i removed the drivers, tried reinstalling them and got a “this doesn’t exist” type error…but the above fixed that ha-ha. Now everything works!
Much appreciated.
Great news!.
