<info> Unmanaged Device found; state CONNECTED forced.

I am running Ubuntu server 12.04 LTS with ubuntu-desktop installed. The
eth0 device is not managed by NM. I use NM to connect my 3g Mobile
Broardband USB modem to the internet.  I also use firestarter to
provision (Internet Connection Sharing). As of this moment I see no
problems. Either when I use my 3G modem or I plug the eth0 into a router
to gain Internet access.

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

  DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
  DISTRIB_RELEASE=8.04
  DISTRIB_CODENAME=hardy
  DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu hardy (development branch)"
  Firefox 3.0b3
  When I start firefox from the panel it always start in offline mode. I am 
connected via wireless to a network that is always on. When I want to browse I 
need to unclick "work offline"

  Workaround 1: (since ffox 3.0.1) ->
   set toolkit.networkmanager.disable to false in about:config

  Workaround 2: (make NM to be always online) ->
   add a non existing interface to /etc/network/interfaces, like:

  iface eth1000 inet dhcp
