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?? This is glaring!! -- [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
