I have resolved the problem. Your suggestion of it being a possible network issue made me look at the Network Settings option under Administration.
After reapplying a previous saved network 'location' (which set eth0 and eth1 to dhcp) programs are now starting without the delay. I guess the saved location (from when I was using Feisty also contained information regarding the lo interface whcih after being reloaded fixed the problem. Also, after reloading this network location I seem to be able to set the Ethernet devices back to roaming mode with no program delay being caused. I wonder if this a problem for anyone else who upgraded. -- Taking a long time to open Nautilus windows https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/155709 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
