Subject: [gentoo-user] wicd setup on a virtualbox gentoo guest

1 Hello,
2
3 I am having a hard time getting wicd to work on gentoo guest. Thought
4 that it was a simple matter of emerge and run wicd-client -n to
5 configure. I have compiled the correct ethernet driver in the kernel (at
6 least I think so). Does anyone have some experience with this or could
7 point me to diagnostic approaches? The output of ifconfig -a follows
8 below. Don't know why eth1 and not eth0 is there. The HWaddr is
9 correctly obtained from the vbox.

11 Thanks,
