I've just installed ubuntu for the first time on a computer (version 12.10). I can't figure out how to get a wired connection to work OR a wireless connection.
I've read similar problems, and I've tried the other recommended fixes (at least those that I could figure out), and none of them have worked. Most of the time the terminal just gives me an error when I try to type in the message others recommend.
I see a lot of people recommending to type this in:
sudo apt-get remove bcmwl-kernel-source
This gives me an error message that says:
E: dpkg wasa interrupted, you must manually run 'sudo dpkg --configure -a' to correct the problem.
So, outside of recommending that fix, what are some other options? I'm using another computer to ask this question.
Also, I'm running from a flash driver right now. Is that a problem? Should I try to install an older version. I'd like to install on my computer, but I can't without an internet connection...
Thanks!
