Am using natty. (normal ubuntu) and I don't think unity does any good. So I am using compiz with loads of effects enabled and the ordinary gnome-panel.
The network manager applet seems to crash a few seconds after the crash has been triggered. But this time I updated my system it seems like the second of these two lines killed it: Processing triggers for man-db ... Processing triggers for python-support ... Reinstalling the network manager with the command line you proposed does output the following: (Reading database ... 210758 files and directories currently installed.)

The fact if there is any network load seems not to affect this behavior. Another hint might be that in order to access my WLAN I have to use the bcmwl package. But this package contains a dkms kernel module that doesn't use python or similar... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/709156 Title: nm-applet often crashes on natty when apt-get dist-upgrading -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
