Bug Description
If I take either one of my network devices down (wlan0, eth0) and then bring
them up again using the "deactivate" and "activate" functions in network-admin,
bad things begin to happen. This problem does not occur if I do a simple
"/etc/init.
Opening the following programs doesn't work: firefox, rhythmbox, network-admin,
gnome-terminal, and probably others. Evolution takes 5 minutes or more before it
opens. I can't log out of gnome, and if I kill the xserver and log back in, it
stalls.
I've tried killing every single process I can think of (gnome-
gnome-sm-proxy etc etc) and nothing helps. Only a restart does the trick.
Obviously this is a major problem.
I installed the system at array 5 and it is up to date.
Hope this is a fault my end!!
