Few changes to 18.04

  • Network order has been somewhat fixed, you can use the network manager to set IP address/gateway/etc
  • SDDM is now an issue (formally KDM) - it loads before ubuntu has a chance to get NIS users. Additionally, it logs out users after a couple of minutes of use - can't figure why (possible graphics issue? not being able to immediately do something with users passwd/profile?). It is definitely not a power saving problem.
    • Fix for this is to use lightdm
 sudo apt-get install lightdm-gtk-greeter lightdm
  • IS had changed some gateway settings, here's the new set of addresses to use for interfaces;

auto enp*s*

iface enp*s* inet static

address 128.243.74.***

netmask 255.255.255.0

gateway 128.243.74.254

dns-nameservers 128.243.40.11 128.243.40.12 128.243.21.19
