Years go by between the times I install a new Ubuntu/Trinty.
It is now time again -- this time to build a machine
to replace my wife's antique Win XP.

I just did the install with Trinity's CD image Ubuntu 18.02/Trinity 14.07.

I want to set a static IP for the box -- and get rid of the DHCP crap.

All the searching either shows

Make changes to the /etc/netplan yaml file
	-- there isn't any - just an empty directory!

 -or-

"Click on top right network icon and select settings corresponding to
the network interface you wish to assign with the static IP address."
	--- ya, well, this is Trinity.

..and, of course NONE of this resembles anything I remember from
hacking my Ubuntu 16.04 with Trinity from a WAY LONG time ago.

Could someone please point me where to start?

Thank you!
Jonesy
