hotplug of wifi nubbin made system menu unresponsive

[pq]

(that's the symptom anyway; hot-plugging may be a red herring)

what i did:

1. norns was on
2. wifi not setup
3. plugged in a nubbin
4. navigated to system meu
5. wifi reads "stopped"
6. navigate back to system menu
7. can't navigate menu (e.g., to sleep)
8. had to reboot

rebooting with nubbin in:

• wifi still stopped, but
• menu is navigable
• can't choose hotspot in wifi menu; i think i'm trapped in the select your own menu (but dunno since i've never been through it)

couple more data points that might (or might not) be relevant

• i often get hard crashes of the norns when a ssh session dies (which happens all the time), or when the wifi network goes away (occaisional)

• i consistently have to turn wifi 'off' before turning it back 'on' even when it thinks it is 'on' after boot

@pq have you experienced this again with the new images?

yesterday i hotplugged the wifi nub and it worked unexpectedly fine. tried it again later and it didn't work, but it also didn't crash/freeze anything.

hasn't recurred but then i haven't hot-plugged again either. once burned... 😉 happy to try and repro but just as happy to just close this out as "assumed stale".

trickyfleming on lines hit this too:

I once had the audio engine failure when going to the WiFi menu without the WiFi nub connected.
