Linux Mint Forums

For what it's worth I have the same problem as the OP. I now use Synaptic instead but it would be nice if the Software Manager worked correctly.

So anyway I have the BCM43227 chipset and I found the solution to be pretty simple once I figured it out. Thanks to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Driver/bcm43xx#STA_-_No_Internet_access If you have the BCM4311, BCM4312, BCM4313, BCM4321, BCM4322, BCM43224, BCM43225, BCM43227 or BCM43228...

I'm running Windows right now and I want to install Linux Mint KDE but doing so without an internet connection. So I'd like to get my wireless up and running without using ndiswrapper and without compiling the driver. I know my wireless uses the latest BCM43XX driver. Thanks

Glad you like it. IMO Mint has "always" been the best.

Hi markcynt. Though you left before I joined, welcome back to the Linux Mint forums :D Which edition are you now running? Have fun with Linux Mint & happy hacking! Thank you Vincent, I'm running Linux Mint 13 Mate/KDE. I may end up reinstalling and use either KDE or Cinnamon cuz my graphics are...

I'm back after a lengthy hiatus from Linux/Mint. Now that I got my hybrid ATI graphics to work I'll be settling in with Mint. I'm glad to see Mint is just as good as ever.

I think it's more like you misunderstanding Mint than others here misunderstanding you.

Click the Mint menu button, type devede in the search bar, then on the right click 'Install package devede'.

If you run Gparted after you start the installer you need to reboot to the live DVD before the changes are recognized.

NimaSepassi, what annoys you the most about Linux Mint?

Good review, and it doesn't even mention my favorite feature, virtualbox-nonfree added to the repo.

As impressed as I was with LMDE, I'm even more impressed with Julia.

The little green men are working on it right now.

Screenlets is also a good option.

It's in the repo.
Comes with a weather widget plus more weather widgets can be downloaded through Gnome-look.org

Sounds like the exact same problem I had with Mint 9 / Ubuntu 10.04

This fix worked for me

FYI I don't have this problem in Mint 10 / Ubuntu 10.10

EDIT: I just checked the site given in the topic I referenced above for Remastersys and found that the entire website (http://geekconnection.org/home/ )has been destroyed by a malicious attack along with all repos they hosted. However, you can still get Remastersys from the home page here via a red...
