 I'm running 0.3.3~alpha-1 from Debian experimental to control a system-
 wide instance of Tor 0.2.3.20-rc-1. I'm using ControlSocket
 authentication.

 Sometimes, when my NetworkManager post-up hook restarts Tor and then
 Vidalia, Vidalia status window is stalled at "Authenticated to Tor".
 Often, I kill the stalled Vidalia, wait a bit, start a new one that works
 fine.

 I initially thought it was because the hook was starting Vidalia too
 early, at a time when the Tor control socket was not ready yet.

 However, I managed to reproduce this issue once _without_ restarting Tor,
 merely by killing my Vidalia and starting it soon after a dozen times. I
 have no clue what made the failing test special compared to the other ten
 or so successful tests.

 I have seen a few similar tickets open, but most happen on Windows and/or
 TBB, or lacking enough information for me to decide if my problem is the
 same one, so I'll let you decide if it's a duplicate.

 Thank you for working on Vidalia.
