wicd failed

[manco1911]

its a quick shot.. but.. do you have X up allready ?

if u try to start wicd from console without startx before you will get a fail.
so:
1) @: startx
2) fire up a terminal and write: " sudo start-network" and then try to start wicd on the Kmenu or also on terminal by "/etc/init.d/wicd start"

No it's a late shot, a month late.

No it would be service wicd start in this case, service networking start.
/etc/init.d/networking or wicd will work as well. Of course with the above sudo can be used, in front of the command.
Your syntax is not correct above. See also here

have u problems with WEP or WPA encrypted networks? i got only problems with WEP networks. in my case it seems, that wicd dont give the correct or any device to dhclient. see my post: http://forums.remote-exploit.org/bac...blem-wicd.html
my is not the problem to start wicd. my problem is, that wicd dont connect to WEP-ones.
