What are the contents of /etc/hostname
and /etc/hosts
? Also don't forget to reboot after changing the hostname!
Gnome terminal looks weird, or old, because it uses a different UI library to the other Gnome apps.
The new looking ones use GTK4/Libadwaita, wheras Gnome terminal uses GTK3. There is porting work being done, but for the time being you can use another terminal which is Libadwaita such as Blackbox or use this theme which makes GTK3 look like GTK4.
Oh, I'm used to Ubuntu which has a custom theme for terminal
If you're just referring to the color scheme, you can adjust that to your liking in the preferences section of menu in the top right of Gnome Terminal.
try: hostnamectl --help
There's a new GTK4/Libadwaita terminal called Console, but Fedora didn't include it, preferring to update the old terminal eventually.
If you just need a basic terminal there's Console, if you need something a bit more tweakable there's Blackbox
Update: so I'm updating on a kernel 6.5.6 backup which still works, and I see this when I run dnf upgrade
So I take it I probably shouldn't update
Never mind I can see it's installing the newer kernel
Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
