After I upgraded to FC9, my eth0 connection started offline. I manually turned the connection online but all my applications start offline including Firefox, Evolution, and Pidgin. Also, my Pidgin status is "Available waiting for network connection." I disabled and enabled my accounts and they all came up but my status didn't change. Is there a setting I'm missing here? I've been with Fedora since 4 and this is a new one for me.
Several people have been having problems with eth0 not coming up.
Disabling NetworkManager and enabling network using system-config-services
fixed it for me.
Good luck,
