I did different. I use aptitude to uninstall NetworkManage and install wicd instead. Works fine. All the configuration I have to do is to use wicd's user interface to tell it which SSID's to connect to with which passwords. SOmetimes I have to manually choose an SSID when it has too mny to choose between itself. -- hendrik _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
