I didn’t know this, but seemingly you have to remove the network manager before you set up a static Ethernet IP on Lucid Lynx.
Remove Network Manager.
Then follow the instructions here.

I had a fabulous weekend running the Virgin London Marathon, times below. I’m going to take a week off and just relax, maybe next week I’ll do a little work at the gym (probably cardiovascular), I think I’ll give my legs a rest for the full 2 weeks before starting to run again.
I more please with raising money for Marie Curie Cancer Care who are a fabulous bunch of guys, I would certainly run for them again given the chance. I’m going to keep my sponsorship page open for 4 weeks or so on the off chance of more sponsorship. If you have a spare few quid, feel free to pop over to my sponsorship page and sponsor me here.

I’ve just applied for the New York Marathon lottery again, I’ll hear if I’ve been successful by mid March, fingers crossed.
Ohh well, didn’t get in this year either. Probably a good thing since I’ve got a lot of things on this year. Still, there’s next year and I’m confident that I’ll get in at some point. 
I was trawling the web today and found this quick and painless bash script to change all the default folder premission back to default.
find . -type d -exec chmod 755 '{}' \;
You could of course adapt this script to change ownership of folders by changing the chmod command to chown, but I’ll leave that one for you to work out.
Here’s another to change file permissions back to there default
find . -type f -exec chmod 644 '{}' \;
Happy scripting 
Well, I had my first long run of my marathon training today, all went well and I finished my 15 mile run in a tad over 2 hours. The reason I’ve missed the my first long runs are all to do with the weather, damn snow. Going on holiday in a week, thankfully they have a gym which I’ll use if I can’t get out and run.
