13:00:04 [ ~barney_]  unable to resolve host UBUNTU804 -- What does this mean
                     in the terminal?
13:00:50 [ Palintheus] that it can't resolve an IP for UBUNTU804
13:01:50 [ ~barney_] i see -- could it be cause of a firewall?
13:02:17 [ Palintheus] not likely, is UBUNTU804 a computer on your network?
13:02:55 [ ~barney_] yes -- I am chatting with you on it... :-)
13:03:19 [ Palintheus] are you trying to ping it or what is causing the error?
13:03:46 [ ~barney_] i'll try to ping
13:04:03 [ Palintheus] what caused that message to show up?
13:06:16 [ ~barney_] i was in the terminal doing a package repair sudo dpkg
                     --configure -a or -f
13:06:48 [ ~barney_] i pinged google ok...
13:07:32 [ ~barney_] barney@UBUNTU804:~$ sudo dpkg --configure -f
