Also experiencing the same exact issue on a Dell Latitude D830. Restarting NetworkManager doesn't help, nor does reloading the iwl3945 module, turning the wireless on/off via the physical switch, or any of the other suggestions in this thread. Only solution is to reboot, and it's a temporary solut

I agree completely with vexorian with this issue. In light of PRISM, I now have even greater aversion to recommending Ubuntu to a new Linux user. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1054776

This bug is not fixed. Based on the outlined steps to repeat: 1. Visit a local PC store. 2. Attempt to buy a machine without any proprietary software. At least in the Reno, NV area, the results of the "steps to repeat" involve relatively-nonexistent availability of free-and-open-source p

Jeremy: The difference between the Dash and, say, Google Now is that one typically does not use Google Now to launch applications or find local files (I don't know if that's even possible). Siri typically doesn't do as much of those things either; it can launch apps, but since iOS doesn't (without

Jeremy: the fact that the Shopping Lens is opt-out instead of opt-in is precisely why this bug exists. Is there some reason why shopping results (or, better yet, web searches in general) couldn't be relegated to their own separate lens icon in the Dash? Are users honestly using the Dash's Home Le

Crap, I posted prematurely. Anyway, based on the screenshot attached to my previous post, the Brainstorm idea is clearly *not* implemented. So I suppose this remains the most viable location, since it appears that criticism of Canonical's precious Unity is unwelcome there. Regardless, until this

I posted up an idea on Ubuntu Brainstorm about this, which I figure would be a better vector for such things: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/30415/ Unfortunately, the moderation staff doesn't agree, and marked it as "already implemented". ** Attachment added: "Screenshot of Dash Home Lens sea

I have a bit more information. Same symptoms, different desktop managers. I've noticed that this is *not* happening in Unity or KDE. However, it *does* occur with both Xfce (known) and LXDE. Not sure if that helps, but it might help find a common factor. -- You received this bug notification

And amazingly I do have a workaround! Well, for AMD/ATI users at least. If you have the proprietary AMD drivers installed, open up the Catalyst Control Center and switch over to the "Color" screen. Tweak the "Gamma" setting (make sure "All(locked)" is selected under "Select Color Channel:") and
