If there is a Linux compatible driver, go to: Menu > Control Center > Hardware > Hardware drivers

It will then search all available drivers. If none come up, then hope the hardware manufacturer has made a Linux compatible on their website for you to download.

It would be helpful if you told us something about your hardware. Please see the last line on the Red bar at the top.
[Edit] your original post and add [SOLVED] once your question is resolved.

“The people are my God” stressing the factor determining man’s destiny lies within man not in anything outside man, and thereby defining man as the dominator and remoulder of the world.
