This Is what I had to do to get ixconn working on my installation , maybe this will help someone facing similar problems.by now I'm assuming you've fully installed ixconn and whatnot.
First of all canonical removed

Do this
Code: Alles auswählen
# Generated by NetworkManager
#nameserver 127.0.0.1
nameserver 8.8.8.8
