Re: different icons if internet is available



I've implemented the most code, except the function that decides if internet is available or not.
In fact I'm thinking of this problem.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=439310
an isolated network access cannot of course reach the most internet locations

we could discuss on this... for instance in might be:
internet on if ubuntu.com and gnome.org are reachable
otherwise internet off.

Of course it is not a complete solution, it is only a try.

I'm trying to think of how this is implemented in the new windows vista

Not hard? Well, the first thing is, what do you actually mean by
"internet is reachable"? What's the difference between an isolated local
network, and one with what a person might call 'internet access'?
