Hi, The desktop installed the Sid (seems not so relevant here.) Now the monitor/screen not work; other things are totally fine. I used to login desktop first and then ssh from laptop, Now since not be able to log in, how can I find its ip ? so I can connect from laptop. or shall I just find other monitor and connect?
That seems to be the simplest solution, if you have a working monitor.So you have a working computer, but without monitor, and you want to know its IP-address? I assume your laptop is connected to the same router as the monitorless computer.
I would have two suggestions.1) Log into the router, and see what IP-addresses have been given out recently, and try connecting to them.
2) Install zenmap on the laptop, find the IP-address range the router uses (mine uses 10.0.1.*, most I have used use 192.168.0.* or 192.168.1.*). Run a quick scan with zenmap on that range of IP-addresses, and see which ones have an ssh-port open.
Then try to connect to those. Regards Johan
