[Bug 835972] Re: after resume the "Disconnected - you are now offline" notification doesn't disappear

 

OK, I built and tested network-manager-gnome (nm-applet) with these
patches reverted:

lp341684_device_sensitive_disconnect_notify.patch
lp358526_generic_disconnected_notification_icon.pa tch

This prevents the notification from staying on the screen until manually
closed.  You can also use this command:

gconftool-2 -s /apps/nm-applet/disable-disconnected-notifications true
--type bool

to disable disconnected notifications (or set it to false to re-enable
them).

I am not really sure why the patches are being included in the current
package anyway.  They do no seem to be necessary.  Can someone from the
network-manager team please explain?

Title:
  after resume the "Disconnected - you are now offline" notification
  doesn't disappear

Status in “network-manager-applet” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “xfce4-notifyd” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Observed behaviour:
  When I resume from standby, the "Disconnected - you are now offline" notification (which probably appeared when standby was started) stays on the screen and doesn't go away until I close it manually.
  Network (LAN - eth0) works, so in fact I'm online and the notification is false.
  Notifications are set to disappear after 4 seconds, which they do, except this naughty one.

  Expected behaviour:
  The "Disconnected - you are now offline" notification should not appear or disappear after the selected amount of time.
  The best thing would be to display a "Connected - you are now online" notification.

  used version:
  0.2.1-1 on Xubuntu Natty
  (all updates up to date)
