A few further remarks: When NM is stopped, it properly deconfigures the wireless interface in wpa_supplicant. So if you later on use wicd or ifupdown, you should be able to start another wpa_supplicant instance. The D-Bus activated one should just do nothing. I tried this: # /etc/init.d/network-manager stop # ps aux | grep wpa_supplicant root 1372 0.0 0.0 31224 3096 ? Ss Nov05 0:00 /sbin/wpa_supplicant -u -s -O /var/run/wpa_supplicant # setup /e/n/i # ifup wlan0 # ps aux | grep wpa_supplicant root 1372 0.0 0.0 31224 3096 ? Ss Nov05 0:00 /sbin/wpa_supplicant -u -s -O /var/run/wpa_supplicant root 21574 0.0 0.0 39632 1456 ? Ss 14:26 0:00 /sbin/wpa_supplicant -s -B -P /var/run/wpa_supplicant.wlan0.pid -i wlan0 -W -D nl80211,wext -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf Seems to work fine. -- Why is it that all of the instruments seeking intelligent life in the universe are pointed away from Earth?
