Description shaneonabike 2012-04-17 15:04:45 UTC 
[I realize this might be strange but it happens a lot and not with other accounts like Jabber, etc]

In Ubuntu 11.x

* Connect to IRC on Wifi
* Plug in LAN later on and IRC stops working

Would there be any way to detect a change in the connect and re-connect the IRC channel. It's not clear to me why this stops working but it happens on a regular basis.

It also happens the other way around :/

BTW the only workaround is to actually go offline and then go back online in order for it to resync.
Comment 2 Guillaume Desmottes 2012-04-18 07:34:49 UTC 
Could you please attach telepathy-idle logs (Help - Debug) when it doesn't reconnect while the other accounts do?

Comment 4 shaneonabike 2012-04-18 14:27:53 UTC 
I removed the connection at 10:20 so after that it looks like there is a msg_queue timeout being received. I wonder if it receives that if it couldn't just force a new connect.

The only way I have ever been able to re-invoke this is to put myself offline and then bring myself back online for IRC to properly reconnect.

Looks like a telepathy-idle issue. Please report to bugs.freedesktop.org and attach this log.
