While adding a new feed to Google Reader a little window open and tells me that Google Gears would like to use this application. I accepted and suddenly the little green symbol for activating the offline modus in Google Reader appeared!
It seems to work. I did not change anything. OK, today there was one update for Linux, but I do not think it was do to this update of Gnome utils. But who knows. It is just weird because I can not understand, why suddenly the “thingy” works.
But on the other hand: Who cares? Google Gears finally works! 
- Google Gears working on Ubuntu 8.04 now - almost
- Google Gears, Firefox and Ubuntu 7.04
- Google Gears still not working for me on Ubuntu
- Google Gears does not work with Firefox on Ubuntu 7.04
- Bidirectional syncronization between Google Calendar and Mozilla Thunderbird
