Network manager can erroneously report that the system is off-line, and certain software would drop into off-line mode. If you don't use network manager, then completely turn off the service. And it should stop affecting software in that manner. If you don't want Firefox to be controlled by it, then you can turn that feature off in Firefox. Type about:config into the address bar, type networkmanager into the filter bar, change the toolkit.networkmanager.disable preference value to true (double clicking it will toggle its status). There's probably a similar problem, and solution, for Thunderbird. Evolution also gets affected by NetworkManager, but I've not looked for a work around. I just make sure the network's up before I start the program. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -r 2.6.27.5-41.fc9.i686 Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
