   Hi readers and typers,   
   	Well I tried very hard to install PCLinuxOS64 with Trinity but I could   
   not get networking to work.  X3   
   	I then tried to install PCLinuxOS64 with KDE Plasma 5 X 3   
   	I tried to start PCLinuxOS64 KDE 4 from a Flash Drive but the   
   damned refusal of anything with KDE's Plasma 4 to work had infected it.   
   	I tried to start with Knoppix from Flash Drivesbut something was off.   
   	Finally I got an older version of Mageia 5 or 5.1 Flash Driveto work   
   and was able to go online to the PCLinux Forums where no one was having   
   a similar problem.  But I found I could turn on my wireless   
   and when the wireless card was on the Ethernet wired connection worked   
   	So I tried a final attempt with KDE's Plasma 5 on PCLinusOS 64   
   of 2017.07 vintage and here I am back again.   
   	I have just started my updates.
