<div class="">This should probably be its own thread, but just to add some<br class="">
clarification. <br class="">
<br class="">
The no networking issue generally occurs when people boot the USB on<br class="">
their computer (not in a VM) and they are expecting to use WiFi and<br class="">
either the WiFi drivers aren't available or they don't realize they need<br class="">
to select and authenticate to a network. <br class="">
<br class="">
Note: Wired networks could theoretically have the similar issued but in<br class="">
practice tend to just work (or just don't get used as often).<br class="">

It seems you experience a problem with the network configuration.<br class="">
By default the live system network works fine for me behind a DHCP<br class="">
server.<br class="">
<br class="">
I think we could add some more details about how to configure<br class="">
networking in our installation documents in case someone else faces<br class="">
the same issue as you do.<br class="">
I am not sure though about a popup. We already have a popup with<br class="">
generic info to the user about where to get help and password file<br class="">
location.<br class="">
<br class="">
Best,<br class="">

So, we’ve been handing out Live OSgeo thumb drives for a couple of<br class="">
years now, and we’ve put a bit of work into explaining how to get up<br class="">
and running with it to new users. We hand out a getting started card<br class="">
for example.<br class="">
<br class="">
One item that we wanted to run past the list for, is an addition to<br class="">
the VM start screen. The idea is to add a Network checking process<br class="">
to the interface, something that pops up a dialog to explain that<br class="">
there is no network configured.<br class="">
<br class="">
Most people who have experience with setting up computers know to<br class="">
check something like this, even in a VM, but your average new user of<br class="">
a VM, doesn’t know by default that they also need to configure the<br class="">
network for the VM after is starts.<br class="">
<br class="">
Thoughts?<br class="">
