Oh crap. Did you set up an Ubuntu server or desktop image?

My setup is a laptop with a desktop image installed. The issue comes up (at
least) when using wifi networking.

By networking is up / down, do you mean when NetworkManager is running or
not? Did you mean "any host" by ${hostname}? Or did you mean the hostname
of my box?

Theses are with NetworkManager running, first with networking and the
second after removing the ethernet cable:

$ ping www.google.com
PING www.l.google.com (173.194.32.18) 56(84) bytes of data.

vs

$ ping www.google.com
ping: unknown host www.google.com
