Topic: Control panel buttons missing

Running CP 2.8.8
Was getting ready for work while listening to music from a stick disk. Left for work with the chumby in the "My Music Files" menu. Came home, went back to the music menu to find the Chumby lost its network connection. Reconnected to the network, and went back to the main CP screen to find the following items were missing.
Widget title, channel change arrows, stay, send, rate, and delete buttons. Did a reboot through the Settings/Chumby Info/Pi and everything was back to normal.

Re: Control panel buttons missing

In the channel title section (above the widget name), did it say anything like "Not Connected" or "Not Authorized"?

Could it play widgets?

After re-connecting to the network, I don't recall there being text above the widget name, but that doesn't mean it wasn't there. The widgets would play and I could change using the squeeze/turn method.

Re: Control panel buttons missing

Hmmm, if it happens again, let us know.  It's possible there was some sort of race condition between the network section and the decision to put the buttons up.
