The only time I've seen anything like this was specifically in Evolution (which I use under KDE, not Gnome). It hasn't happened for a a long time now but IIRC it was related to a misconfigured NetworkManager. Gnome gets its "online" status by querying NM over DBUS, so If you have scripts that sideline NM that could be the cause. poc _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected]
