Public bug reported:
(This occurs on Hardy Heron for me, although I have spoken to other
users who experience it on Gutsy Gibbon)
After logging in from the GDM screen, the icons in the Notification area
tray do not load in a reasonably time (~5-10 minutes at times). This is
especially important for programs such as Compiz's fusion-icon, as
without it, no window manager can be started and unless one is started
from a terminal using "Application->Accessories->Terminal" and starting
either Compiz or Metacity in this way, can you use the computer at all.
This problem may be attributed to the use of Wireless drivers, as all
the cases I know of (and on my laptop, using the proprietary Intel
drivers) occur on installations with wireless internet access.
Is it possible that the system waits for some call or response from the
internet that it cannot receive as the nm-applet has not been loaded,
and hence hangs for an undetermined amount of time...?
(If required I can post any information necessary; at the moment I don't
know what would be most helpful in resolving this problem :) )
** Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu)
