Net-install?
by Beartooth 14 Jun '13

14 Jun '13

Iirc, there has always been a way to do a fresh install off the Net, though I've never had the confidence to try it. But the wording on the wiki page about Fedup somehow sounds to me more emphatic than before. So is there a hand-holding page somewhere that explains to subtechnoids just how to do a net-install?

So I asumed the network was up. Also from that point on, I did nothing explicit to do with networks, and I has able to ssh in after reboot! Ahhh.... wireless.... I only tested a wireless install one time and recall there was a problem in that area. Didn't go back and investigate or file a bugzilla. :-( Maybe you should at this point. -- The only thing worse than a poorly asked question is a cryptic answer.

Terminal title doesn't change correctly
by SternData 13 Jun '13

13 Jun '13

Suggested by the sudo discussion. When I open a new XFCE terminal, the window title is "terminal". If I ssh to another computer via ssh mooch, the title changes to "sdstern@mooch:~" Typing "exit" to return to my desktop does not affect the window title. Starting clean, "ssh -p 12345 linode.sterndata.com" does NOT change the window title. Anyone know what's going on with XFCE Terminal? Also, this is exactly the same thing I see if I use gnome-terminal instead, so this is probably a Works-As-Designed. Help me understand the design! -- -- Steve
