I just installed Ubuntu 8.04 on the computer of somebody. They are using a Speedtouch 330, so I stumbled across usb-adsl-modem-manager (https://launchpad.net/usb-adsl-modem-manager).
Although usb-adsl-modem-manager makes sure that you can connect to the internet, Firefox is always in offline mode, so the user needs to go to the File-menu to switch off this mode. This could be a problem with usb- adsl-modem-manager, firefox or the network-manager. As I couldn't use the bug reporting tool of usb-adsl-modem-manager, I send those on the top contributors list a mail (see https://launchpad.net/usb-adsl-modem-manager/+topcontributors). ** Also affects: usb-adsl-modem-manager Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [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 Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
