Hello,
I am new here and new to computers and especially linux. I am hopeless even with the most basic stuff :(
I have an acer aspire one running on linux. It was working fine the last few months up untill last night. This morning before switching it on i cleaned the screen. After switching it on i get the message something along the lines " having problems connecting to the internet. Do you wish to create a new connection"
Secondly. the volume icon in the right botton has a cross (x) mark on it and when i click on it it says " No volume control GStreamer plugins and /or devices found"
Thirdly, when i click on " my documents" it does not open. The same is the case with " my music". " My pictures" open but it has no pictures in it that i had.
The rest works fine like games etc. They open when i double click on them and work.
Could i have damaged it somehow? I don't have a clue to what is happening. My connection is working fine as i am using it right now with my PC.
Kindly guide me if possible.
Regards
It may depend on which version of linux but this forum should be able to help
http://www.linuxquestions.org
as it deals with a huge range of different versions of linux but is dedicated to linux support.
It might be worth popping along to
https://distrowatch.com/ to see if you recognise which of those versions of linux you are using. If you see your version listed down on the right-hand side then click on it and navigate to the "User Forums" for your version of linux. They should be able to give much better help in there.
