I have already used Salix for few years and I am trying to ...

Re: 5G Wi-Fi

Thanks for the info.

I bought a WiFi adapter that is based on RTL8812AU and with little bit of DKMS work, I was able to get it working perfectly.

Thanks,
Balaji.

Re: Synapse launcher

I agree. However, though I like Salix very much, the one thing that always beats me is the unavailability of softwares that I need. Some examples are:

Synapse
JEdit Text Editor
LXDE Menu Editor

Thanks,
Balaji.

Re: 5G Wi-Fi

Found the issue.

The Wi-Fi adapter that I have TPLink TL-WN823N supports only 2.4 GHz. I need to purchase some adapter that supports 5GHz.

I always connect to the 2.4GHz wifi from the router on my Salix desktop. Today I thought of connecting to the 5GHz WiFi, but I realized that the network manager in Salix is not showing the 5GHz wifi. How do I get the 5GHz wifi networks to show up in the network manager on Salix? Do I need ...
