I've encountered this problem as well with Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise Pangolin)/Linux Mint 13 (maya), i386 non-PAE on a Panasonic Toughbook CF-51 with an Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG [Calexico2].
At boot Network Manager doesn't show anything but iwlist does show wireless networks available. After several minutes, Network Manager starts functioning, showing the available networks. I've monitored the logs (.xsession-errors, syslog, dmesg, kern.log, auth.log, udev.log) but nothing appears at the moment it starts functioning. The following bugs appear to be duplicates of this but I don't have time to verify them: bug 1032664 bug 1031777 bug 1017186 bug 996389 bug 991872 bug 983583 bug 965895 Bug 767423 seems to be an even older report of the same problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1011073 Title: NetworkManager submenus sometimes unpopulated To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1011073/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
