PB: Install driver of 3rd-party wireless adapter

Post by hikaru2001 »

Hello,

I want to use a 3rd-party wireless adapter on RevPi Core 3. When I install the driver of the adapter, the terminal asks me to enter the password. I have tried the password of login, but it doesn't work. Could you tell how to do it? Thank you!

Hi, you have to use "sudo [command]..." to run an command with super user privileges. The idea is that you never use the "root" account as your user "pi" as sudo privileges.
