[Bug 191889] Re: [MASTER] [WORKAROUND] Offline Mode feature fails to detect proper online state for networks that are managed outside of network manager.
After reading this entire post, and finding nothing useful. The only useful posting was the one about updating (searching for the poster, crashed my FireFox) so I am not sure if this will help anyone. [My System] Ubuntu 10.04.3 (server) - updated to generic-pae - running Xubuntu-Desktop Linux acer 2.6.32-38-generic-pae #83-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jan 4 12:11:13 UTC 2012 i686 GNU/Linux The steps I took to fix the problem Applications-Accessories-Terminal $ sudo su - $ aptitude search network I looked for all that was installed, and what I thought would be needed to maintain the network through apps instead of directly through the /etc/network/interfaces file I found and installed the below apps $ sudo apt-get install network-manager network-config network-manager-gnome gnome-network-admin --reinstall The gui informed me after this install I needed to reboot, so I rebooted. Once I rebooted, the notification icon didn't appear, and FireFox along with other applications did start correctly, (ie NOT in Offline Mode) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/191889 Title: [MASTER] [WORKAROUND] Offline Mode feature fails to detect proper online state for networks that are managed outside of network manager.
