lock resolv.conf in ubuntu or another linux

to lock your resolv.conf

Bug Description

Binary package hint: network-manager

This bug causes name resolution to be painfully slow. If I manually remove the routers ip from resolv.conf it works normally, but next time the machine is booted the address gets added to the list again. I found the only way around this was to lock the file. “sudo chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf” so that network manager would not re-edit the file upon boot. I have seen this problem many times on the forums, and believe it should be made a priority to fix this. This “slow internet” gives people a horrible first impression of Ubuntu, and seems it would be easy enough to to fix. Thank you for our time.
