debian+phosh running on PinePhone

[parkerwb]

Alright, and you can ping 8.8.8.8 with no losses ? Have you tried getting closer to your hotspot ? (I found my Pinephone has a quite limited wifi range)

What does "nslookup kernel.org"  output? (package dnsutils, in case it's not installed)

Yes I can browse website by IP, ping by IP etc. Can't install dnsutils because of the apt resolve error. 'service ModemManager stop' didn't help (thinking maybe apt was trying to use mobile data instead of WiFi and I have no SIM installed). Still playing around, but at a loss and, sadly, no linux expert nor DNS expert.

Code:

ping 8.8.8.8 works but not ping google.com - there's a quick fix by reordering the hosts entry in /etc/nsswitch.conf - see first part of this solution.

BOOM! That worked. Thanks for the help! Here's what my nsswitch.conf looks like now.

Code:

# /etc/nsswitch.conf
#
# Example configuration of GNU Name Service Switch functionality.
# If you have the `glibc-doc-reference' and `info' packages installed, try:
# `info libc "Name Service Switch"' for information about this file.

passwd:         files systemd
group:          files systemd
shadow:         files
gshadow:        files

# hosts:          files resolve [!UNAVAIL=return] dns
hosts:          files mdns4_minimal [NOTFOUND=return] dns
networks:       files
