 After starting a pidgin it changes it status to Available and "waiting for
 network connection" while i am already connected.
 my interfaces file is all lists "auto %if" since i'm starting connections
 manually. So i'm not using a NM. Maybe that's the point.
 i have laptop with integrated wifi. i dont know for now will the problem
 persist on the wired connection, i'll find it out tomorrow, but now i'm
 using wlan0 configured with ifup -i separate_wifi_config_file. And pidgin
 does not see it.
