I installed a new Gentoo installation, and now when I open Firefox I get: |

Firefox is currently in offline mode and can't browse the Web. |

The browser is operating in its offline mode and cannot connect to the |
| 7 |
requested item. |

* Is the computer connected to an active network? |
| 10 |
* Place the browser in online mode and try again. |

My computer is surely connected to an active network, I can wget without |
| 14 |
problems, and of course I can go to the File menu and switch off the |
| 15 |
stupid "Offline" mode, but I don't want to do that every time I start |
| 16 |
Firefox, so why does he put me in this mode in the first place? What can |
| 17 |
I do to have Firefox start normally, like it does in Debian? |

It's a pity that Linux applications start to behave more and more like |
| 20 |
MS-Windows ones - they do what THEY think is best instead of letting the |
| 21 |
user do what he wants. I want to browse the web and I am online, while |
| 22 |
the stupid program thinks I am offline, and prevents me to browse the |
| 23 |
web. |
