Yesterday night I had a problem with a usb port and the touch pad not working, I restarted the system a few times and switched back and forth with windows (which is installed on a different drive), they didn't work even there.After a few restarts the usbport and the touch pad came back to life, but the wifi stopped working. When I type wifi in the terminal I get: wifi = none (no device)
This time the problem is only on linux though.
Where/What should I check?

it didn't work, but after a bit it started working again, pretty wild
I always carry with me a USB live environment of Linux Mint with me, it's been a lifesaver in some situations when my wifi card stopped cooperating for whatever reason.
Also good for showcasing Linux Mint to other people.
me too, but it still didn't work. :/
