When I installed 13.1 on this machine I set the hostname. When I run 'hostname' or 'hostname -fqdn' I see what I expect, what I set it to.
When I am at the console prompt (tty,2,3,4,5,6) I see that hostname at part of the login prompt. When I've logged in the spell prompt includes that hostname,
This is all as I expect and as it should be.
But with the graphical prompt I see another name 'Linux-85q8' or something like that, rather than the hostname I've set it to.
WTF?
Oh, right, this must be defined in the login screen definition... But where and why? Why doesn't it use the proper hostname and where does this come from?
what does hostnamectl says ?
MAN 5 hostmane talks of the file /etc/hostname which it claims is set at boot time. Id doens't say if this is set by the command line or by something in the systemd boot sequence. Perhaps a 'systemd-hostnamed.service'? Either way, I don't have this file, so where does that 'linux-85q8' come from? The kernel? So how did it get there if not on the command line? Mkinitrd?
