Just updated to karmic and experienced the same problem (1-3 second delays on dns lookup). Switching off IPv6 dns support in firefox "fixes" the problem.
Do do that open up Mozilla or Firefox and type in 'about:config' in the address bar Scroll down to "network.dns.disableIPv6", it's defaulted to a value of false, change it to true. hope that helps. -- [karmic regression] all network apps / browsers suffer from multi-second delays by default due to IPv6 DNS lookups https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/417757 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
