I have no inxi information because I have no internet to install it. The WiFi connection is the only possible connection for that computer because of its location.
I installed the Mageia 8 alpha 1 using the Live installer. During the installation the setup for the WiFi network had only the ndiswrapper option, and I have no Windows driver to point to. So I installed setting up the wired adapter just to get past that point of the installation. I do not know where to get a driver for the adapter or how to set that up.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Banjo
