Re: [trinity-users] a puzzle, maybe or maybe not trinity-related

In Debian at least, with package resolvconf installed, /etc/resolv.conf is a symlink to /etc/resolvconf/run which itself is a link to /run/resolvconf. It's updated dynamically and automatically. Maybe unsuccessfully if your router is flaky. If you want to edit manually and want it to stick you can rename /etc/resolv.conf (the link) to disable it then create a new one with custom settings (I do, and use opendns) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resolvconf Not a lot to do with what desktop you run.
