Wild guess: PROMPT_COMMAND was changed in /etc/bashrc or ~/.bashrc
PROMPT_COMMAND is __vte_prompt_command . I do not know what that does. It's from /etc/bashrc . After noticing that my prompt string had also changed: hennebry@Microknoppix ~]$ echo $PS1 [\u@\h \W]$ I tried [hennebry@Microknoppix ~]$ hostname Microknoppix.midcoip.net
My inference is that Knoppix was talking to DNS and told it my name was Microknoppix.midcoip.net . hostname thenameiwant should do the trick. Correct?
