In the process of repurposing a machine I changed the hostname in /etc/hostname from <oldname> to <newname>. This apparently innocuous change killed my ability to use sudo. Sudo now responds

Something strange in your .bashrc ?
Basic question: What kind of session are you running?
When you plug it into your usb port is the device recognised at all. What is the output of lsusb when the device is plugged in.

Yeah - sorry about the huge essay. Guess I was bored.
Linux is not a musical desert and there is a some good stuff out there for musicians. I use Audacity regularly. A great program - very easy...

The first problem I had with it was turning off my USB mouse after less than 5...
Video drivers are a likely suspect. Have you got the proprietary drivers installed?
OK - gvim wasn't the problem. It was ridiculously aggressive APM spinning the disk down almost as soon as it became inactive. This is actually harmful to the disk! I removed laptop mode tools and the...
