That specific behavior is bug 1508563, whose fix just landed and will be in the next rc-proposed. It happened if unity8 was too being too slow (because the system was loaded). That is all great news! I will confirm today in my neighborhood and jump for joy if no UI freezes occur (I had tried those steps before but was watching CPU, where spikes still happened -- which I guess is the "slightest tick" you saw in the UI -- when a scan occurs). I'll note that xenial has dbus 1.10, so it should have GetAllMatches if anyone wants to try Tony's scripts without actually patching dbus. Just install devel-proposed instead of rc-proposed. Of course, that will change a lot of other things on your system. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1480877 Title: Access points' "PropertiesChanged" dbus signals freeze UI on mobile devices Status in Canonical System Image: Confirmed Status in indicator-network package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in location-service package in Ubuntu RTM: New Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu RTM: Incomplete Bug description: Krillin, rc-proposed, r83 DESCRIPTION: I've been trying to track down the cause of the occasional UI freezes on my Krillin device, and I noticed that whenever the UI freezes for 2-4 seconds, I get a burst of "PropertiesChanged" signals in dbus-monitor Here's a log of what's shown in dbus-monitor: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/11992322/ I'd guess the problem is in the code that actually catches the signals and acts accordingly. HOW TO REPRODUCE: 1) Move to a place where many wifi hotspots are available 2) Connect the device via USB and run "phablet-shell" and then "dbus-monitor" 3) Use the device while keeping an eye on dbus-monitor output To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1480877/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
