Product: HP 242 G1
Operating System: Linux

When i bought this Laptop it came with Ubuntu installed on it, everything including Bluetooth, Audio, graphics worked perfectly fine, since i was not familiar with Linux i cleaned the system and migrated to windows 8. This year 2019 i installed Ubuntu but Bluetooth, sound doesn't work anymore, i tried many ways to installed drivers using command lines that i have been given by Long term Linux users but nothing worked, i'm currently having Sound issues, No Bluetooth, Bad interface, and very low WiFi signals. How do i get this solved ? i need system drivers but system doesn't show up any driver updates. 

 

 

Thank you.

@Trevor_Javier 

The only specs I could find for this model PC shows that it came from HP with Win7 or Win8x preloaded, not Linux.

 

If you bought it from a reseller that loaded Linux onto it, that present a problem as I can find no HP support for Linux on this model PC.

Hi, this laptop has the Ubuntu sticker right next to the INTEL sticker which means this laptop originally came with Linux ? i would be so happy to give you more information about my  computer whenever you need. 

 

 

Thank you
