[Bug 191889] Re: [MASTER] [WORKAROUND] "Offline Mode" feature fails to detect proper online state for networks that are managed outside of network manager.

[chewearn]

I was just setting up 3G broadband dial-up using the following setup:
- Tether from Intrepid to mobilephone via bluetooth.
- Mobile phone serve as dial-up modem.
- Using wvdial and gnome-ppp.

Once connection is established, I got a ppp0 entry from ifconfig.
However, Firefox still starts in offline mode.  nm-applet shows an icon
wihth exclamation mark, indicating it is not aware of the ppp
connection.  The internet connection itself is working, once I manually
set Firefox to online mode.

I have the Network Manager updated to: 0.7~~svn20081015t224738-0ubuntu1
