After rebuilding the box from scratching with an 8.04 beta disc and installing all updates I still have this same issue. Its not that the panel totally crashes now though. Things just respond VERY slowly in comparison to when I'm at home. I've noticed this operation on 3 different access points up and down the street. Just driving down the street had enough points listed that it had to scroll several screenfull's just to see the one I wanted to connect to. The points I'm connecting to are straight up open 100% public free points. The one at home is WPA Personal.
Once applications are open they seem to respond generally fine but the applications menu becomes painfully slow... -- Connecting to other networks causes gnome-panel to hang https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/211471 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
