[Solved] How does one go about changing the hostname in arch nowadays?

Everything I've seen on the subject references /etc/rc.conf, which I believe is no longer used.
I've updated /etc/hostname, but when hostname -f does not return the expected.

Please see "man archlinux".
Also, I can never remember if hostname is one of those things you need to reboot for...

  • How does one go about getting the Kit Kat upgrade?

    I've searched the Verizon site ad I can't find how to download it.  Must one be selected?

    Thanks for your reply.  I went to Settings and About Phone, however, there was a "System updates"  that showed a history and a "Check for new software update" key.  I tried that and it returned with Your phone is up to date.  I guess I'll have to wait for Verizon to send me an update.

    How does one go about getting the Kit Kat upgrade?
    created by clydefrog4963 in Samsung Galaxy Note 3 - View the full discussionVerizon has started pushing the 4.4.4 KitKat update on the Note 3, I got mine today. It poppped up when connected to my computer on Kies but you can do it on your phone by going to settings, all the way to "about phone" at the bottom, then click on "software update." Its best to do this while connected to wifi, and make sure your phone is at least half charged.

  • How does one go about changing a primary email add...

    I've been being bombarded with rather offensive spam on my primary email address for a few months now. I have put up with it for a while in the hope that it would cease, (and to save myself all the hassle associated with changing one's email address), but it hasn't stopped and I feel forced to do something about it.
    I used a contact form on a BT Support website, (not sure which one), to ask for advice on how to change my email address, and last night an Asian gentleman telephoned me and a) Advised me to change my email passowrd at least every month, and b) Instructed me to forward each and every spam message to acceptable.use@btinternet. What he not do, however, was what I'd asked the question about...tell me how to change my primary email address.
    I've subsequently received an email from [email protected] advising me to run anti-virus software. Admittedly I was on a PC when the spam started, albeit one with what I believe to be decent anti-virus siftware running in it, (AVG), but I have now migrated to a Mac and the stuff is still coming, even with my old PC switched off completely.
    I really believe now that the only real option open to me is to change my primary address.
    Can anyone advise please?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi.
    Spam has nothing to do with you having a PC or Mac once your email is "out there". I'm surprised that the anti-spam systems on the mail servers hasn't picked up these and put them into the Spam folder (typically only visible via webmail).
    Are you using webmail all the time, or use a local mail client program ?
    If using webmail, then you can mark the offensive spam and click the Spam button. Hopefully the system will learn that they should be all put into the Spam folder.
    Are you really getting a lot of these dodgy emails ?

    Hello,
    Easiest would be to get an External Hard Drive & clone eerything asap, you can even boot/run from the external, & Firewire would be far faster than USB.
    Even if you replace the Internal, you'll need an externsal to clone to first.

  • HT1040 I must not have chosen a hard back book when I started my project of creating a photo book. When I go to buy the book it only allows a small soft cover book. How would one go about changing it to a hard back book?

    I must not have chosen a hard back book when I started my project of creating a photo book. when I go to buy the book it only allows me to buy the small soft cover book. How would one go about to chage the settings?

    What version of iPhoto?
    THe basic answer to duplicate the book as things may change when you change size, select themes again and pic the cover and  size you want -
    Before ordering your book preview it using this method - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1040 - and save the resulting PDF for reference - the delivered book will match it.

  • HT4112 how does one navigate with out the use of a mouse? do we still need to use finger to move to different things?

    how does one navigate the keyboard without a mouse. Do we still use finger to move from place to place?

    Yes you still need to use your finger to do all of the things that you need to use it for even if you use a wireless keyboard. You are merely adding a larger more robust keyboard to the device. You are not replacing the touch gestures features with the use of an external keyboard.

  • How does one put text on the spine?

    I'm a little confused about the difference between the version I'm creating and the template I start with. I start with a template, then resize and mess with the arrangement of the pictures. I move text boxes. All seems okay.
    I put a colored background on the front and back cover (by inserting a specially made pdf from Pages, a gradient color). The back spine remains white, and blank. How can I add text to the spine? And is there a way to have the color from the background bleed over the spine?
    Ben

    I certainly don't know how it was constructed, but I suppose the form was intended for people that use Word. If you were using Word, you would just select the "insert" key (or something - I forget) and type away. The text would type above the line. I thought maybe there was something like that in Pages. I find myself getting very frustrated using Pages and Numbers. They really aren't that easy to use. Word and Excel have them beat.

  • HT1819 How would I go about changing the RSS feed for an already established podcast?

    Hello! My co-host and I have recently acquired a website for our show, and we'd like to change the feed for our podcast, but I'm unable to find any real way to do it. Can anyone give me an assist?

    Hi Bonesaw,
    Whether you grap or snap continuously is up to you.  If you don't care about viewing continuously you can snap continuously.  Another option is to use the IMAQ sequence VI which grabs a series of images.  You can then save those images without worrying about the buffer.  
    For the buffer you can use the Acquired buffer number output of the Grab acquire VI as the buffer input to your copy acquired buffer VI.
    The reason that only the last image is saved is because you are using the same file path for each save.  That means that you are overwriting each image when a new image comes up.  You can avoid this by building the file path and incorporating the increment counter in the file path.  That will give you a new file name for each iteration of the loop.

  • How does one learn about the new features or pending features

    I'll be honest I have know about Acrobat,com for some time but have recently found a few business opportunities.  Throughout the fourms I see notations about future releases. Some great opportunities if some of the features were a bit more enriched.
    Is there a means of finding out what features are planned and possible target releases ?   I am curious from both the Acrobat.com sharing perspective as well as the CS Review functions.
    Thanks in advance
