I decided to try one more thing and used the 8-31 12.0 legacy build and all is right with LE on the Lenovo. Wifi working as expected, no skin issues and no video issues. Weather service working. Took me awhile to get here but well worth the effort. I expanded my knowledge of the system a bit and gained a new appreciation for all the folks at LE. You guys rock and thanks!

Thanks for the tip. I was having trouble navigating the way to the right build. Finally managed to try the 08 31 build on the Lenovo. Good news is wifi is functional but I had problems with everything I tried. Confluence skin when I clicked on LE settings it hung up and reverted to original skin. I couldn't enter the location for the weather either. Video for this version using Confluence was interesting too. Move the mouse and static on the screen. I know it's work in progress so I will to hold off and use the Windows version (yuk) till this gets sorted out.

Thanks again for your efforts. I'm a bit lost on where to find and download the nightly 12.0 package.
I figured it out. Will give this a go today and once again thank you.

I figured out maybe connect with cat5 to router is my only way. Viola!

Yes I have used ssh in the past. I might be missing something here but without a device url how would I connect with ssh?
-
I've never opened the hood of LE to see what's inside. Exactly how do I run "dmesg | paste" ?
-
Hope I understand what you need.dmesg.txt

I think I did this right and here's the output from Linux. Sorry for being such a pain.lshw.txt

I updated the drivers to the latest available but so far still no luck. I'll try a fresh install later and see if there is difference. As always thanks for the help.

I gave it a try and got "Failed to paste log" I also tried this usb drive in an Intel laptop and got the same "Failed to paste log. Try again"

Same issue using the 08-16 build. No connections listed.

Thanks He. I'll give it try tonight.

I made a clean X86 system on a 32gb Sandisk usb stick. Hardware is a Lenovo ideapad 130 AMD A9 system with LE11.03 system and boots without issues. When I select connections it is totally blank. Wifi adapter does not seem to be detected. I'm stuck on this one.

Sounds about right for NTFS. My plan is to ditch NTFS altogether for my mass storage and replace with ext4. I've had several strange file issues with Linux based software trying to decipher Bill Gates spaghetti file systems. From what I gather native filesystem's will play together much better. We'll see.

I have a dual boot system on my PC with Linux Mint and Windows. I know just enough about Linux to be dangerous but never had any Linux file system issues in 10 years so I'll ditch the NTFS and redo with ext4. Seems the path of least resistance might work for me. NTFS seems like replacing a broken Ford part with cheap one from China and expecting equal performance.

I don't think speed will be an issue just compatability with my LE system. 8 tb of our DVDs, music, photos etc. I usually copy Files to the working system SSD for viewing so unless ext4 is slower than cold molassas it should work fine. The only reason to even deal with Windows was file repair so sounds like a worthwhile project and test for future updates. Soon as the wife gets her stuff all packed and we move into our new home I'll give ext4 a whirl. Thanks to all that responded!
