[tech] Fixed clownfish network and X11, needs upgrading

[James Arcus]

Hi tech,After installing the new hardware for clownfish it was failing to bring up the network on boot.I was able to bring it up manually using ip link set <interface> up. I discovered with the help of the SOE wiki page (I was getting ready to reinstall it) that /etc/network/interfaces had to be updated as the new motherboard had changed the LAN interface name.I also fixed crashing Cinnamon by installing the proprietary Nvidia driver, and updated thr packages to the latest.As yet it is still running Mint 17.3, which is now out of support. It is also booting off the old SSD instead of the new M.2 drive. I recommend reinstalling fresh on the new drive with the latest release of Mint.Cheers,James [MPT]
