Comment 3 for bug 67289

I also see the same problem on two computers, one slow (with the beta Edgy updated), one fast (with a fresh installation of the released Edgy).

It happens for both the workgroup and for the shares in the workgroup. Clicking reload makes it toggle between 'blank' and a valid networking icon.

The only configuration change I made to /etc/samba/smb.conf after installing from Synaptics is to set:

security = share
force user = rocko

and restart the samba daemon.

It used to work in Dapper.
