Spynner "timeout reached"

On a new Ubuntu Server 14.04.1 LTS:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade
sudo apt-get install python-pip libpython2.7-dev  libx11-dev libxtst-dev libpng12-dev
sudo pip install autopy
sudo apt-get install python-qt4 libxml2-dev libxslt1-dev python-dev 
sudo pip install spynner
sudo pip install ipython
Xvfb :0 -ac -screen 0 1024x768x16 &
export DISPLAY=:0
ipython


>import spynner
>spynner_browser = spynner.Browser()
>spynner_browser.load("http://www.docusign.com", load_timeout=12000)

SpynnerTimeout: Timeout reached: 120 seconds

This timeouts no matter what timeout I choose.

Please try other websites, docusign must block you (ip, user agent, etc)

It's not, as I am able to open the page using ghost.py, Selenium with Chrome, and Phantomjs on the same machine at the same time.

I run into the same problem when running Python in interactive mode. Sometimes a timeout doesn't even occur and it just hangs.

My guess is this is the same problem as in this issue.
