This is a dns resolution error... mc starts, when all timeouts are
passed ;)
There are 3 ways for fixing that:
1) you can delete your default gateway (the dns fails without timeout)
2) check /etc/resolv.conf + default route (the dns fails without timeout)
3) setup a correct /etc/hosts file with the name of the machine (the
libc resolver resolves the name without any network related things)
The last thing is the best solution, I think ;)
PS: You can check that, by running the following command on some
terminal: "strace -r -oX mc"
And on a seconds terminal, watch the output of X via "tail -f X"
Maybe some developer of mc can fix the thing, by avoiding the
unnecessary dns lookup ;)
