This is my first time messing with Linux so please forgive my ignorance.
I have an HP Elitebook 840 G8 that I’ve installed Ubuntu server on. I was trying to install a GUI on it, so I tried pulling the SLiM package from the web, but got "Temporary Failure resolving ‘Archive.ubuntu.com’.
This laptop doesn’t have an Ethernet Port, so I have to use a Microsoft USB-Ethernet dongle. But I haven’t been successful in getting that to work.
Is there a way for me to manually download the driver on a USB, then load it that way?
Wait I thought you’re using Linux for the first time and went for an obscure server distro as your first one for some reason. Idk anything about servers except that they use ssh, private-public key pairs, firewalls and no DEs. I can’t help with them
Lol, I AM using Linux for the first time. But yea, I’m trying to use the most user-friendly things to accomplish what I want to do. Thanks anyway for trying. :)
