Linux Mint Forums

I'm sorry guys, after 4 days of trial and error I've moved over to Manjaro. Wifi is working great and the OS seems to be as user friendly as Linux Mint.

I've done it and ran the download again, this is what I'm getting. muhammed@linux-muhammed:~/rtl8723de$ sudo dkms install rtl8723de/5.1.1.8_21285.20171026_COEX20170111-1414 Kernel preparation unnecessary for this kernel.

Could it be the reason that the laptop never really shuts down or restarts? It goes into a forever black screen while it's still powered up, I have to manually press power off and on to get it working.

Nope doesnt work unfortunately

Appreciate all the help btw guys, so far this community seems really active and really helpful. Hope to gain more knowledge on Linux so that I can open up pathways and help others too.
