Hello,

I hope all are well. I recently dual-installed debian from a live image on
a usb along with Windows on a new computer. My friend gave me some
guidance, but he is very busy so I don't want to bother him now.

When I first installed, my wifi didn't work on Debian, so I couldn't
download Gnome. As you can see below, my friend gave me a fix to connect to
wifi, but it didn't work. Nor is it possible to download/install Gnome, as
you can see from the error messages below. Can anyone explain to me how to
fix this? By the way, I'm hard-wired now. Thanks!
