I ran into the same problem on Ubuntu 7.10 / 64 bit ... looks like some kind of funkified host lookup.
Note that it is considered very bad TCP/IP practice to put your own hostname on 127.0.0.1 .... Ubuntu seems to do a hack and add a line for 127.0.1.1 to /etc/hosts, which I removed as being also non-canonical IP networking - I put it back for now. I am planning to deploy a DNS server on my home LAN which, I suspect, will tame it, but it would be good if the developers removed this lookup from the code. -- GNOME applications delay to start https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/128521 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
