[Bug 191889] Re: [MASTER] [WORKAROUND] Offline Mode feature fails to detect proper online state for networks that are managed outside of network manager.
Hi, I connect to internet using Huawei EC1260 USB modem on Lucid Lynx. The network manager detects the mobile broadband hardware but doesn't conect for some reason that I'll investigate later. Since nw can't get me connected (despite detecting the device), I am forced to use ppp (wvdial or GNOME-ppp) So, I connect using GNOME-PPP that uses pppd interface for the Huawei modem. It works like a charm. After I successfully connect as above, when I physically pull out the Huawei USB modem, network manager immediately jumps and notifies me that I am now offline. Why is network manager telling everybody ( e.g. Firefox, Evolution) that I was offline before ? My point is : If network manager instantly and exactly knows when I get offline after staying connected using ppp, then why is it misguiding all the depending application that I was offline before? While I used the Firefox workaround using about:config, is there any workaround to get Evolution start online?? -- [MASTER] [WORKAROUND] 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 Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

I see that the fix has been committed and released for network manager. But I think the whole issue hasn't moved an inch towards resolution. Even after two years, nw fails to look at ppp connection status to give an informed online/offline status. All depending applications i.e. evolution, firefox etc. continue to be fooled by nw's online/offline status. They continue to start in offline mode. In two years, no fix/progress/information sought/fix?? Is there anything I can do to stop evolution from starting in offline mode? Is there anything, I as a user can do to help??

[Bug 191901] Re: Evolution always start in offline mode
Hi, I have my network connection showing up, Firefox opening sites on internet but Evolution almost always starts in offline mode. I even tried opening Evolution AFTER Firefox but it still starts in offline mode. I am using Lucid Lynx. -- Evolution always start in offline mode https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/191901 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
