Feedback on the HP ProBook 455 G2 Notebook PC - Peeps
Bought new HP455-G2 with Realtek rtl8723be wireless card and Ubuntu pre-installed. I tried to install Lubuntu instead but could not get wifi to work. Now I read that regular Ubuntu image may not work either as the manufacturer uses a customised version. I also read in numerous forums that this is a common issue although the current Linux kernel supposedly supports this wireless card. In desperation I have tried several other distro live disks and all of those based on Debian/Ubuntu don't work but one called Linux Console does. I could migrate to it but I would prefer to stick with Ubuntu or Lubuntu which have served me well for years.
How should I proceed? I am a computer user, not an expert!
