I tried to take a screenshot to show you what I meant, then my system crashed and I could not boot up again. When I tried to reinstall my system, I kept having problems, so I finally migrated over to Devuan Jessie/Beowulf (I believe it's called). Now my system is back to normal again, only better (I hope). Brief answer: You are correct, when I looked in Trinity Control Center / Peripherals / Information / Network Interfaces I saw nothing at all there, not even lo. The same is true when I looked in Trinity Control Center / Internet & Network / Network Settings It was the same, no matter if I was user or root. I think the problem was just that I was tired of installing and reinstalling, and futzing round with trying to get my system working, when I already had a "finely tuned system" (to quote somebody else here); so maybe I skipped some steps in my haste. When I sent that last post to the mailing list, my system was unstable, and about to crash. I was only upgrading to Debian Jessie then on to Devuan Ascii, because I read that security.debian.org servers will no longer support Jessie. Now that I am running Devuan Jessie/Beowulf (?), I don't know if that is still true (that as of today, 17th of June, security patches for Jessie will not be supported). At least Devuan seems to run smoother than Debian. I believe that hereafter I will confine my learning experiments to my laptop, and save my desktop for actual work.
