Description Peter Jones 2002-06-12 15:09:31 UTC
Description of Problem:
After network error, the applet turns to a gray question mark.  If you right
click, "check for available" updates is grayed out.  It'd be better if it was
available.

To reproduce this:
1. launch rhn-applet
2. disable you network DNS
3. rhn-applet can't connect
4. the "check for updates" is grayed

The only solution is to restart the rhn-applet.

Okay I have fixed it the current code base for the error and
disconnected states

  this should hit RawHide soon,

Daniel
