Firefox goes offline

A bug that Firefox 3 shows, is that maybe if he is ever open and there is no Internet connection, it will always start when offline. A little annoying.

To resolve this bug, we will edit the NetworkManager.conf. But first, back up!

# cp /etc/dbus-1/system.d/NetworkManager.conf  /etc/dbus-1/system.d/NetworkManager.conf.2008.07.01
# gedit /etc/dbus-1/system.d/NetworkManager.conf

Now we can replace all strings:

allow send_interface = "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager

by:

deny send_interface = "org.freedesktop.NetworkManager

Getting something like:
<!DOCTYPE busconfig PUBLIC
"-//freedesktop//DTD D-BUS Bus Configuration 1.0//EN"
"http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/dbus/1.0/busconfig.dtd">
<busconfig>
<policy user="root">
<allow own="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
<allow send_destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
<deny send_interface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
</policy>
<policy user="haldaemon">
<allow send_destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
<deny send_interface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
</policy>
<policy group="netdev">
<allow send_destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
<deny send_interface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
</policy>
<policy at_console="true">
<allow send_destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
<deny send_interface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
</policy>
<policy context="default">
<deny own="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
<deny send_destination="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
<deny send_interface="org.freedesktop.NetworkManager"/>
</policy>
<limit name="max_replies_per_connection">512</limit>
</busconfig>
