Cannot get NM to run
Darren, The onboard wireless is only b, I wanted the faster g to prevent my laptop from slowing down the entire network. Lspci tells me it's an Atheros NIC AR5005VL 802.11bg (rev01). I am using Driverloader by Linuxant which is based on Ndis wrapper to load the XP driver for the card.

T40's usually come with an Atheros card or IPW2100 both of which should work fine where your Dlink card requires some type of NDIS wrapper which judging by your description does not support WEXT so Network Manager cannot support it. Do you know what chipset your Dlink card has? ___ NetworkManager-list mailing list NetworkManager-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/networkmanager-list
Cannot get NM to run
My goal is to connect to a WPA secured network. I am running Ubuntu 6.10 on an IBM Thinkpad T40p. Built-in wireless is disabled in BIOS, I use a D-Link DWL-G650M PCMCIA card instead. The card works fine using the XP drivers under Linuxant. I have no problems connecting to an open network after manually configuring the ESSID and IP info. To get WPA support, I installed NM by : "sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome". The command completed successfully. Then I edited the "interfaces" commenting out everything except the "Io" statements. However, even after several reboots, still no sign of NM. Synaptic tells me that network-manager and network-manager-gnome are installed, v 0.6.3.2ubuntu6. The nm-applet is listed in the Start-up Programs list. When "killall NetworkManager && NetworkManager --no-daemon" (as suggested in another thread) root_at_Frodo:/home/rer# killall NetworkManager && NetworkManager --no-daemon NetworkManager: starting... NetworkManager: nm_dbus_init (): nm_dbus_init (): could not acquire hte NetworkManager service as it is already taken (ret-3). Is the daemon already running? NetworkManager:[1172619287.397157] main ():nm_dbus_init () failed, exiting. Either dbus is not running, or NetworkManager dbus security policy was not loaded. NetworkManager: traceback: NetworkManager:NetworkManager(main+0x47f) [0x80681af] NetworkManager: /lib/tls/1686/cmov/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xdc) [0xb7c2f8cc]: NetworkManager: [117261947.586695] nm_print_open_socks (): Open Socket List Done. NetworkManager:NetworkManager [0x80530a1] Trace/breakpoint trap (core dumped) Any idea what could prevent NM from running, what am I missing?
