When I launch network manager in sys-net, I tried to manually input the information for my WiFi (with the SSID and WPA2/Personal), but it doesn't connect after.
When I run "lsusb" in the dom0 terminal, I get: Realtek Semiconductor Corp VIA Labs, Inc. Linux Foundation 3.0 root hub blank Chicony Electronics Co., Ltd VIA Lbs, Inc. Logitech, Inc. Unifying Receiver (for my usb mouse) Terminus Technology Inc. VIA Labs, Inc. Intel Corp. Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub None of these are my network cards, right? > > 2.

I wasn't able to enable them after installation, maybe because I have a USB keyboard. However, my touchpad/trackpad doesn't work.
