omair: did you try the pdns-recursor workaround? maybe this can help you until there is a fix.
install pdns-recursor via synaptic or apt-get. then edit /etc/resolv.con (sudo gedit /etc/resolv.conf) and set nameserver to 127.0.0.1 if your problem is only in firefox you can disable ipv6: enter about:config in the addressbar and confirm the warning. then enter ipv6 as a filter and double click on network.dns.disableIPv6 (after this the value must be enabled) hope this stops you thinking about windows 7 ;-) -- [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
