Bug#653573: plasma-desktop: application panel disappears when wireless connection is lost or hanging
Package: plasma-desktop
Version: 4:4.6.5-4
Severity: normal
I'm not sure if this is related to this package. Here is the symptom:
The application panel (former kicker),set to auto-hide, disappears if the network connection is lost or lagging.
I thought that it was due to the information widget trying to display the packages to update. So, I removed it from the panel but without changes.
The only way to make it re-appear is:
1) ctrl+alt+backspace
2) to login as root
3) to de-activate the interface (ifdown)
4) restart KDE
I did not notice this problem with KDE3.
