Hi guys, I'm quiet new to linux, so please hold my hands through this complex procedure for I don't know alot of things about linux. So I got this new PC and decided to try out openSUSE. The problem is the neither the lan driver and my usb wireless driver are prepackaged into version 13.1.
I searched online and found that I could compile the usb wireless driver from this: http://wikidevi.com/files/Drivers/Re..._added.tar.bz2
As for the ethernet adaptor, I have the intel ethernet connection (2) I218-V on the MSI MPOWER Z97 motherboard. For the driver, I found this: http://downloadcenter.intel.com/conf...&Dwnldid=15817
The thing is to compile these I need the kernel-header, but I can't seem to find a way to install the kernel-header without internet. So this becomes a circular problem for me.
Because my PC is very far away from any LAN connections, so I'd prefer to fix my wireless issue first. However if it is easier to get the LAN working first then I'm all for it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
