No Internet after installing LXDE on Raspbian Jessie Lite

[ponyhearts]

Has anyone else experienced problems with their internet connectivity not working after installing LXDE?

I used sudo apt-get install xinit first and it passes this step.
After it finishes installing lxde, using sudo apt-get install lxde, the internet is no longer accessible.
Concatenating lxde and lightdm into the same apt-get install has the same problem.

Does anyone know how to get it work? Or am I stuck with lxde-core?

How are you connected (wired / wifi)?
What is the exact error message?
Can you still ping internet URLs and / or IP addresses

Code: Select all

ping google.com
ping 8.8.8.8

Neither works.

That's the weird thing. There is no error message in particular, but when I login using the graphical interface, I notice that the network connections icon shows there is no connection. When I go into it, I can see the wifi adapter is picking up various signals but it only shows 1% signal which is strange. Upon pressing connect and typing in my passphrase, it goes through the processes like authenticating, but doesn't actually connect in the end. I also have the ethernet connected, but when I press connect via wired connection it goes through the process and then states it is connected briefly and then stops again.

I'm not sure what exactly is causing it.

I gave up. I tinkered around with it a bit but decided to use the lxde-core again.

I'm missing the system tools, but nothing I cannot do with terminal.

I believe something with the additional packages is conflicting, most likely a network config package.
