Dave F<p>Since I have found that installing <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>linux</span></a> has become easier and easier the last few years, I decided to conduct an experiment. I gave my 10 year old daughter a usb stick and had her install it on a Dell laptop from 2011. <br>I recorded the whole thing (recorded her on my phone while a capture card recorded her screen). And for the most part, it went well. There was an issue about the correct time zone - which I believe is either due to the collapse of the US educational system or even more likely her mother's fault. 😃 Unfortunately, after installing Linux Mint all the way. She wasn't able to get the wireless card working. In her defense, I couldn't either until I connected a cat5 cable and downloaded the drivers.<br>The thing is: I was able to connect to the wireless router when I booted to the live distro. The drivers had to have been on the stick! Why didn't they install?<br><a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/linuxmint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>linuxmint</span></a> <br><a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/endof10" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>endof10</span></a> <br><a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/Dell" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Dell</span></a><br><a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/oldcomputers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>oldcomputers</span></a></p>
