 +====== Hostname ======
 +
 +Hello, I don't have an account, so I can't make this edit, but: Hostname!
 +
 +If you use network manager, you need to edit /etc/NetworkManager/NetworkManager.conf to change the hostname.
 +
 +Hostname!
 +
 +----
 +A rather cosmetic change suggested:
 +<code>
 +s/file and then run <code> /file and then run <code>/
 +</code>
 +This would remove the (useless, IMHO) empty line that begins the following Code block.\\

 +
 +
 +====== Installing updates using slackpkg ======
 +<code>slackpkg install-new</code> installs NEW packages marked with "Added" in ChangeLog.txt, so it only suitable to 1) upgrade between releases (for ex. 14.1 to 14.2) or to 2) update current. This do nothing to update stable release version that doesn't get any NEW packages, only /patches/*.
 +
 +For slackpkg ''update'', ''install-new'', ''upgrade-all'', ''clean-system'' sequence the ''install-new'' and ''clean-system'' are odd and useless on stable release .
