Bug Description
Sometimes, WiFi disconnects, and I have to disable and re-enable wireless to get in to connect. This happens on many systems, so it`s maybe related to the technology rather than Ubuntu. Only this time, both Enable networking and Enable wireless in the indocator menu were greyed out. When trying to run `sudo service networking restart`, Unity crashed. I could start Unity again from command line, but it started without window decorations. I tried to restart Compiz without luck.
Also, when Unity started up, the networking indicator were gone. After a reboot, everything went back to normal.
I cannot give any more information on how to reproduce, other than than one other user were logged in, and this happened after resuming from suspend. I will add a comment if it happens again, and under which circumstances.
