aka Firefox, DNS lookups and IPv6 (under Arch)
Since my laptop is running with Arch, sometimes my Firefox makes me crazy when i'm trying to open a new page because it show a message like Looking up heise.de... for minutes !
After googling a few seconds i've found someting that is working for me...
- Go to about:config
- Search for
network.dns.disableIPv6 - Set it to
true
That is only a workaround because i have no time to debug the root cause.
