Description Tomas Pospisek 2005-02-02 11:58:21 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.3.2)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
OS:                Linux

"Bug 66741: Switch offline/online in status bar" proposes to make on/offline mode switchable through the status bar. I'd instead suggest to provide an action for on/offline switching. That way the user can add the function to a toolbar if wanted.

Added my maximum votes. This is really an important feature in a browser and this bug was filed two years ago. I really cannot believe that such a basic functionality would not be implemented at the outset itself. I had this fixed for SUSE (https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=153250) but now since I am in Kubuntu I lost that SUSE feature.

I have written a spec for Kubuntu (https://blueprints.launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/konqueror-work-offline) but it would be best if the SUSE patch is imported into KDE SVN and so all distros benefit from it.

and in the menu. I'm using suse I don't see any option. and I don't consider network manager an option. because I have a private network with no internet at my house.
