I just bought my first laptop (really, my very first!). A refurbished Thinkpad T400. I'm days away from getting a working Linux based system, but I need to know how both wired/wireless networking is supported in Trinity. Mostly, how to easily toggle between wired and wireless. I plan to use both with the laptop.
Do the main Trinity packages provide that support or do I have to add other network packages?
Slackware handles networking differently from other distros, so this might be an opportunity to provide some meaningful (newbie) testing and debugging. :-)
Thanks. :-)

Howdy,
T430, T61 and x220 owner here. Welcome to the family!
If youll be using network manager, everything will be basically seamless. Does slackware use nm? On Jul 2, 2013 4:53 PM, "Darrell Anderson" darrella@hushmail.com wrote:
