So, after having plenty of trouble working on getting Gentoo set up to |
| 2 |
work with my new laptop, I'm finally able to run 'iwlist wlan0 scan' |
| 3 |
and see the 15 or so cells in immediate area. |

Rather than going straight wpa_supplicant or using NetworkManager on |
| 6 |
this machine, I thought I'd give wicd a try. Trouble is, wicd, for |
| 7 |
whatever reason, isn't seeing any any of the cells. If I run "wicd-cli |
| 8 |
--wireless -l", I get a list's headers, but no observed networks. If I |
| 9 |
run "wicd-cli --wireless -S", I get no output at all. |

The page on gentoo-wiki.com for wicd[1] talks about a few |
| 12 |
configuration files for manual configuration, but those aren't present |
| 13 |
on the filesystem, and there are no manpages for them. |
