Description Pierre-Luc Beaudoin 2009-05-08 17:38:57 UTC 
I am using a ppp connection right now and Empathy won't allow me to go online as it thinks I don't have a network (this ppp connection is not reported in network manager).

Pidgin allowed me to get online.  Possibly, the solution to this bug would be to be more permissive with regards to what network manager reports.  (or it is a bug in network mananger for not knowing about this ppp connection).
