All the solutions to How to fix "The system is running in low-graphics mode" error? require for you to have internet.

I only have wireless internet and when I am in that console the internet is not connected so I cannot install, update or reinstall anything.

I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 and I have the HP Pavilion 17-e020sq laptop (which has an intel graphics and a dedicated ATI one).

I checked how to connect to wifi from terminal but it seems I need to install a bunch of stuff to be able to do that!

How can I fix it?

What I did to fix it was

  • go to recovery mode
  • select enable networking
  • press yes - the terminal appears on the bottom half of the screen
  • I pressed ctrl+C then after a few seconds the desktop appears... the first thing I do is to install the ati driver, restart, and now it works!
