Below is the content of the 2 files, but something jumped in my brain,
could it be

a firewall problem ? I'm connecting mostly behind livebox which are
adsl wifi routers from wanadoo in france, they are frankly strange to
tell the less. The main thing is that they update/upgrade themselves
automatically from the net. Could it be that ? 



here is my /etc/hosts:

root at ubu-chaotic:/etc# cat hosts

127.0.0.1 localhost ubu-chaotic

127.0.1.1 ubu-chaotic



# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts

::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback

fe00::0 ip6-localnet

ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix

ff02::1 ip6-allnodes

ff02::2 ip6-allrouters

ff02::3 ip6-allhosts





and here is my /etc/resolv.conf:

cat /etc/resolv.conf

nameserver 192.168.1.111
