Bug Description
(pasted from http://
I recently installed Ubuntu 7.10 on a MacBook, and this same thing happens all
the time (with my wired Ethernet connection). Any X11 program pauses for about
ten seconds at startup while (I assume) trying to do reverse-DNS (my test
program was "time xterm -e ls").
Manually changing the line in /etc/hosts from:
127.0.1.1 deacon.
...to:
127.0.1.1 deacon.
resolves the issue, but after sleeping and waking the laptop, or whatever
causes NetworkManager to wake up and reshuffle the config files it controls,
this is automatically "fixed" to be:
127.0.1.1 deacon.
...and of course the problem is back.

Open NetworkManager and check what is in the General --> Domain Name field.
