Hi Guys, I run Arch Linux on a Thinkpad and two different desktops. I mention this because I only have this problem on one desktop so it is logical to assume the problem may be hardware / driver related. At any rate I found a workaround similar to the one mentioned in post #17.
just adding /ect/rc.d/avahi-daemon start to rc.local didn't work. Nor did /etc/rc.d/avahi-daemon restart. With or without avahi-daemon declared in rc.conf it still wasn't working. I made sure that avahi- daemon started after sshd in rc.conf (since I'm trying to file-share over ssh) and still no dice. This is what Finally worked for me; in rc.conf add avahi-daemon just before gdm in rc.local add sleep 10 /etc/rc.d/avahi-daemon stop /etc/rc.d/avahi-daemon start /etc/rc.d/avahi-daemon restart Probably over kill, i don't know what part of this solution is actually working around the issue but it works. Thanks guys and I hope this helps someone. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/624043 Title: Avahi needs to be restarted after boot to broadcast netatalk services To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/avahi/+bug/624043/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
