I basically solved my issues with networking for now. |

I am using wpa_supplicant. It allows you to set a group in |
6 |
wpa_supplicant.conf who has access to the wifi interface. I used "wheel" |

This allows the wpa_gui to work for a regular user. cool! It's not as |
8 |
good as kwifimanager, but you have to use that as root in order to do |
9 |
anything useful with it. I like the fact that you can turn off the radio |
10 |
card with kwifimanager, but again, you have to run that as root. Anyway, |

off to other issues (power management!) |
