after much search and unable to find a solution to this problem I am starting to think I have a unique/difficult case.
After rebooting the system following the initial install I faced the "Low Graphics Problem". I searched the Internet and found this extremely helpful link:
How to fix "The system is running in low-graphics mode" error?
I tried to do it the Recovery Mode -> FailsafeX way but was unable to get in.
After this i went to the cli. There I realized that my computer is not connected to the internet.
After reading some questions online and some helpful troubleshooting in #ubuntu in freenode.net. I tried to get more information by entering the following commands:
- lspci -nnk -d :0280 # this resulted in blank, nothing came up
- ubuntu-drivers list # showed one isntalled driver for the Nvidia graphics card. Also tried to install the same graphics card on the suggestion of a freenode contributor but that effort failed.
- tried nmtuid but there are no wifi connections shown.
- sudo lsusb and sudo lspci # listed devices but did not have the wireless card in there.
- sudo lsmod # this also did not have the wireless card listed.
Along with this I have tried all the ways to trouble shoot listed in many ask ubuntu question. I couldn't apply them primarily because the solutions required an internet connection.
also along the way I found this awesome article.
https://www.datamation.com/open-source/overcoming-ubuntu-wi-fi-not-working.html
I read it but I am not very technical at all. I tried to follow along but couldn't after the writer started manually loading the modules.
Also if it helps I have a Asus Z370-e motherboard. I have an Nvidia graphics card.
Any help would be most appreciated!
Thank you.
