| Surely, it's not related to Trinity.
i kind of figured as much, but in that some (well, one that i know of) of
the configuration modules (user administration) in the trinity system
settings suite has not worked for ages, it could be that there was some
little flakiness there.
| I observed such behavior on my Ubuntu 12.04LTS when switching,
| for instance,between wired and GSM Internet connetions.
| Network Manager is the troublemaker, most probably.
i'm running that version, until 14.04LTS plus the appropriate trinity for
it come out, wired all the time on this machine.
| Don't bother yourself with warning saying "Do not edit".
| If you need, just insert manually into resolv.conf file
| your nameservers and restart networking:
| /etc/init.d/networking restart
| You should be O.K. then.
apparently, it is kosher to replace the linked resolv.conf with a real
file, but the better method is to add a dns-nameservers line
to /etc/network/interfaces. so i've done that and we'll see how it fares!
thanks very much.
