Linux driver for Hp pavilion x360 with the RealTek Wireless adapter

[Piloti]

I have two laptops: a very old one, with Ubuntu16.04, which works and a new one, also with Ubuntu, on which I am having the issues. I am doing the posts on the old one.

It i taking me some time to do the updates on the new machine as I have to download voa the old and transfer stuff to the new via usb. Tedious. I am also going to try Ubuntuu 18.04LTS on the new machine, whcih will have the very latest kernal et al and see if that makes a difference.

Hi

You dont have ethernet capability?

I am logged into Lubuntu, and as root / superuser I type.....

LBB@LaptopLub:~$ lspci

01:00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8723BE PCIe Wireless Network Adapter
02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8101/2/6E PCI Express Fast/Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 07)
03:00.0 Unassigned class [ff00]: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTS5229 PCI Express Card Reader (rev 01)

and got 24 lines of info, the last 3 being most relevant.

This new HP Pav x360 does not have ethernet, just wireless. And the wireless is not working. Ho Hum.

Are you able to see exactly which wireless adapter I have, and if there is a linux driver for it ?
