I built a kernel 2.6.21.1.
Everything seems to work fine (nm-applet see the wireless connection
without the essid definition in /etc/interfaces), even the reported signal
strength seems to be more realistic than with the old kernel, but iwconfig
gives me a warning about wireless extension version
Yes, just commenting that line out solved it.
Thanks!
I noticed that now it connects twice to the network, at boot time and
after nm-applet starts:
cat /var/log/syslog
(...)
May 5 19:40:26 localhost dhclient: bound to 192.168.1.101 -- renewal in
37780 seconds.
(...)
192.168.1.101 is the same IP

There is no /etc/interfaces.
valhalla:/home/alejandro# cat /etc/network/interfaces

Thanks for the quick answer. Here I'm trying to answer your questions. I
couldn't find anything wrong with the wireless configuration (it works,
in fact). But the applet still does not see it.
The applet is the stable deb package
valhalla:/home/alejandro# nm-applet --version
Gnome nm-applet

Hi
I just installed linux (debian 4.0) on a dell inspiron 5100 laptop with
a broadcom 4306 rev 02 wireless chip. I have the bcm43xx module loaded
in the kernel, the firmware on /lib/firmware and everything working.
iwconfig sees it as eth2 and the connection is automatic at boot time.
In fact,
