More than anything, I am acknowledging this response. My understanding
is that Wicd requires wpa-supplicant. I don't know that I'm ready to
try to tackle the setup of wpa-supplicant - it's supposed to be harder
(it looks harder from what I have read) to configure than wireless-tools
and I'm not having very much success with that and the iwl3945 driver
built into the kernel.
Regards,
Colleen
