Just installed Fedora for the first time...

on a brand new laptop and I can't seem to find my wireless adapter. I'm used to Ubuntu, and in Ubuntu I'd type lspci and I could see all of the hardware devices, along with my wireless adapter. In Fedora, I cannot do that. However, under network, all I see is my hard wired adapter, not the wireless one.

How can I get the wireless one activated? I'm new to Fedora, so I'm not completely sure what I did/didn't do right.

locate"command"give you the path which is /sbin/lspci I believe. Once you identify your card do a search for it and you will find tons of info.

Wait. What am I supposed to do? Locate /sbin/lspci?

[PilotJLR]

No - he's saying that "locate lspci" will tell you that it resides in /sbin.

The reason this is happening is because Ubuntu includes /sbin in $PATH by default. Fedora / Red Hat does not, for security reasons.
If you switch to root with this:

su -

Then you will not need to specify /sbin, as it is in root's path by default. The hyphen after su is what lets you get root's path.

Or you can call the command by specifying the absolute path to it, thusly./sbin/lspci
