Hello everyone,
i installed Linux mint xfce about a week or two before and have been using it as my main os since.Aside from not being able to install certain programs and other things i've had no major troubles.......until day before yesterday. my wifi suddenly stopped when i was using it and it hasn't connected to any wireless network since. I'm making this post with an ethernet cable hooked up to my laptop. I can see it in the network connections aplication but theres no option to connect to it and it doest show up in network manager either.
