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

[Howard Chu]

Another possible solution would be just to add a mechanism to
NetworkManager (and the applet) to explicitly inform it of the existence
of a connected interface. I'm using adb from the Android SDK to start a
ppp session with my G1 phone, and ppp0 comes online with no trouble but
NetworkManager doesn't see it and none of the current choices under Edit
Connections are appropriate for adding it. (It really should fit under
Mobile Broadband but NM doesn't even see the G1 as a usable device.)

And pidgin still refuses to connect in this situation. (This is on
jaunty...)
