The problem solved.
Hi, I have been away for a while. But the solution seems to here now. I did as Sebastian Salvino suggested: -------------------------------- For those of you who might want to keep using the provider's name servers; Change the value of AVAHI_DAEMON_DETECT_LOCAL, which is located at /etc/default/avahi-daemon, to zero. ------------------------------------- and the error message disappeared. with best, -hv P.S. If somebody, who knows well how this part of the system works, would like to write a small description about, it might be nice. ----- Original Message ----- > From: Sebastian Salvino <s...@noend.com> > To: debian-laptop@lists.debian.org > Cc: > Sent: Monday, July 1, 2013 6:15 PM > Subject: Re: it is avahi?
