yes, it is a workaround but is is not the right way to solve the problem imho. you should clean resolv.conf *every* time the network is disconnected, clicking wicd's "disconnect" button, for instance. but this is still a workaround: the right way, i think, is making application stop looking for dns on startup, as i suppose they're doing. but i'm quite ignorant about the question.
I think, however, that the problem is a serious limitation for a mobile platform. if ubuntu is supposed to be able to manage a mobile scenario, it should be able to handle disconnections, not just connections, and it should not turn into a slow system every time the connection is unavailable. but, i repeat, i'm lacking necessary knowledge to speak about that. there probably are non-trivial causes. -- [/etc/resolv.conf] Extra slow login / app launch https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/78263 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
