Public bug reported: Settings program crashes intermittenly as I am trying to set/edit wifi settings on a 'hidden network' System Settings (gnome-control-center) stops responding. When I do 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall gnome- control-center' I can get it to start again. Reason for attempting to do Wifi settings is that automatic connection is not working.
