Re: [Bug 191889] Re: [MASTER] Offline Mode feature fails to detect proper online state for networks that are managed outside of network manager.
You can use seamonkey instead. I understand why you are upset. I yelled and yelled long before ubuntu hardy was released, but no one fucking listened to me. I told them that this bug would be the bane of the lts release. It is absolutely ridiculous to base network connectivity on a tool that does not function. For most people these days, firefox is their OS. You break that and you piss a lost of people off. However, they decided to break more than firefox it seems. The only way to fix this bug is to agree that relying on NM to query online status is not sufficient. All apps that rely on NM should be changed to use a more reliable status query api...

Re: [Bug 191889] Re: [MASTER] Offline Mode feature fails to detect proper online state for networks that are managed outside of network manager.
No, my addon works in firefox 3.0 for sure :-). I have tested it and additionally others on this thread have said it works as well. It does not merely modify the check mark! It sets various internal firefox variable states to disable the offline mode. If it hasn't worked for you, then I am unsure why, but this is exactly the reason I said long ago that depending on networkmanager for internet connectivity is ridiculous. This bug does not only affect firefox, but the only fix in the pipeline is for fiefox 3.0.1. Other apps will still be affected even after that becomes available, so a real fix is still missing. I have been harping on about this for months. Since no one cared to fix the real problem, I developed a workaround which does at least work for some people.

I have a solution that I think is as near perfect as it gets. It is very simple. The problem: I need NetworkManager for connecting my laptop to wifi and ethernet.

The solution: kill Network Manager before running pppd and revive it after, e.g.: #!/bin/sh killall NetworkManager pppd my_isp NetworkManager I run the above script whenever I need to connect via PPP. I never run pppd alone outside of this script. That gives me a basically 100% correct behavior at all times. If I stop PPP, or pull out my broadband modem card, pppd stops and NetworkManager starts and is ready to serve me. When I am on PPP, NetworkManager is not bothering me with incorrect behavior.

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.

I've found a kludgy fix for this (that doesn't just involve removing nm, since it's wireless and wired handling are nice). In my case, I have a Inspiron 2200 with wifi set via ndiswrapper (which works fine) and an aircard (Verizon PC5740) which worked except for the Offline mode problem. So it's the case where if I don't have wifi, and dial via CDMA, I get the Work Offline stuff going on.

This file seems to be checked on-the-fly, I could change this and see an immediate effect on firefox (although I rebooted to check for side effects). Consequences: This blocks firefox and any other app's attempt to get the online/offline state from NetworkManager, which makes it (and probably any other apps that try to check NetworkManager) decide Networkmanager is not there and assume online state. It ALSO blocks nm-applets access to this though... Since nm-applet can't get the online/offline state from NetworkManager either, it doesn't show online state properly (it'll show the exclamation mark while the network is up and running fine for static IP wifi and ethernet)... For regular ol' DHCP wifi, it does still show the signal bars (since blocking status doesn't block wifi signal strength info). Also, under manual configuration the Roaming mode text changes to This network interface is not configured, and the checked Roaming mode checkboxes change to uncheckd Enable this connection checkboxes. But the interface seems consistent and to behave itself.
