>Do you have more than one login session running when you see this >issue? Nope.. just one session. Without my kludge, It's just like what Daniel Newman etc. have described where the CDMA aircard is a PPP link, and NetworkManager0.6x apparently doesn't track PPP state. If I use wifi, or ethernet, firefox is online. If I don't have a wifi or ethernet connection, and use PPP only, firefox decides I'm offline.
With the kludge, as I say, nm-applet doesn't show proper status for ethernet or static IP wifi (or PPP) (the machine DOES get online, nm- applet just doesn't show it.) For normal wifi, nm-applet doesn't show the DHCP swirl but otherwise does operate fully (shows access point list, joins access points, shows signal strength, etc.) And, at all points, firefox shows online status as the UNIX gods intended 8-). -- [MASTER] "Offline Mode" feature fails to detect proper online state for networks that are managed outside of network manager. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/191889 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
