Hello, I bought a new HP printer and in order to set it up you need to access 123.hp.com. From there I downloaded hplip-3.25.2.run.
What a disaster. It deleted ALL programs such as evolution, firefox, gnome, etc. I can start my laptop in recovery mode, but no connection to the outside world. I can run "dpkg -l | grep firefox" and it will tell me that only the configuration file is present. If I run "ifup --all" it turns on the wifi antenna but the discovery phase times out and no connection is obtained. So I need help in finding out exactly "how" to make it connect in recovery mode in order to run apt and restore my laptop to working again. TIA, Robert
