Thanks to all who replied to my post.
Unfortunately, any version of TDE in my new laptop has in many places
been unable to make an online connection. It may be due to lack of
drivers or firmware.
so the question becomes what firmware do you need. you can figure out
which driver Mate is using or just look for the specs for the laptop
and find the firmware.
people here can help. I don't recall but did you provide the model and
brand of laptop?
the fact it is working in Mate means it will work in Trinity.
I've had to fool around with Broadcom chipsets to get wifi working on
a Thinkpad I have. a bit of a hassle and then it's done.
F.
So for now I'm running Linux Mint (Debian
Mate)
with some Trinity apps and will have a go at this some time later.
BTW, "Mate" refers to the Yerba Maté drink, not the British "matey".
