I tried to change my hostname but I had some problems. Here's a list of what
happened in order.
I used sudo su to change my hostname with:
sudo su
hostname thinkpad
It worked but I kept getting the error:
sudo: unable to resolve hostname thinkpad
So I tried to change /etc/hostname using gedit:
cd /etc/
gedit hostname
And then I changed the file to say thinkpad.
I got some errors after that but I don't remember them.
After that I rebooted.
I logged in and tried to go sudo su again:
sudo su
But I got the same error:
sudo: unable to resolve hostname thinkpad
When I tried to use gedit to edit the hostname file again, I got some error
that I don't remember.
How can I resolve this hostname problem?
