I did not realize the OP could not connect to the internet. You don't need a network manager to connect to the internet. Don't waste your time looking for a different computer and transferring the files. If you have an Ethernet cable connect the computer directly to the modem and then:
Append the following lines to the end of the file:
Ctrl+X
to exit andY
to save. Then:You should get an internet connection. If you do not have a DHCP server use the following instead (if you don't know if you have a DHCP server, then you probably have one so nevermind the following):
Replacing the address, netmask and gateway values with the ones you are used to.
If you cannot possibly connect the computer directly to the modem, you can also manually connect to a wireless AP, though it's much more complicated.
After connecting to the internet:
or
wicd
instead ofnetwork-manager
- it's the one I use.If you are not on the sudoers list issue
su
to become root and then do all the commands withoutsudo
