DetailsDescription: Network Manager is the most popular network manager for Linux, and because of this, tons of programs such as Chromium and Firefox and others I cannot think of at this moment are NetworkManager aware. This means they are able to find out if the computer is online or not through DBUS. Connman exposes its own information through DBUS but it can also be compiled with the --nmcompat flag to enable compatibility for NetworkManager programs. There almost no Connman aware programs other than "CMST" and "connman-gtk" which are there just to provide a GUI for connman. It would be great if we can compile this into connman and make it available to all users.
Additional info: * I made an AUR package here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/connman-nmcompat/ and was advised to make a report to the bug tracker by Alad ("Looks like the only difference with the community pkgbuild is the --enable-nmcompat configure flag. As Arch compiles packages with all features enabled, you should file a bug to connman on flyspray instead.") * Compiling with --nmcompat does not require any dependencies in addition to compiling without it Steps to reproduce: * Run connman, and be disconnected from the internet. * try and load pages in Chromium (obviously they will fail) * If you become connected again using connman-nmcompat once you are actually online again Chromium will reload the tabs that did not load when you were disconnected. (on the binary package currently it will not do this). |
