It is not possible to tell NM "lie to apps and say we're online", because then it'll need to provide all the other details as well (like IP configuration, routes, DNS, ...), handle global state (like default route, resolv.conf), and monitor the connection to change the status when the connection goes down. All that can be summarized with "add support for the device in NM", so if someone is up to it, NM gladly accepts patches. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
