Description Sebastien Bacher 2005-02-20 16:06:12 UTC

This bug has been opened here: https://bugzilla.ubuntu.com/6160

"Whenever I open the GNOME network applet and then close it, I get a crash of
the type "network-admin has quit unexpectedly"."

It happens when you close it while having the busy cursor.

A backtrace of the crash:

Backtrace was generated from '/usr/bin/network-admin'

Using host libthread_db library "/lib/tls/i686/cmov/libthread_db.so.1".
