KUbuntu 10.4, = Failing to get wifi to connect to access point. It can see APs, but fails to get dhcp via command mode, & fails connect with wicd. = It has been suggested (on KUbuntu list?) to remove the KU network manager package, & that might get wicd & console command wifi working. Previously, I was told that there is more networking success if one installs Ubuntu (not KUbuntu) [to get the Ubuntu/Gnome network manager sw], then install KDE on top of that. = For a system that was installed as KUbuntu: Might it be possible to use something like Debian "pinning" to hold back the KU network manager package, & then install the Ubuntu NetworkManager package? Guess I'd at least have to ad the Ubuntu repositories to /etc/apt/sources.list. There might also be another debian method to do this. = Being as Ubuntu is Debian based, is there some way to make this work? = I ran Debian from about 2000-2005, so haven't done pinning for a long time. = Thanks :) == Join in the Global weekly meetings, via VOIP, about all Free SW HW & Culture http://sites.google.com/site/berkeleytip/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
