Hi Nelis, I'm using wicd to manager my eth0 and wlan0. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
My /etc/conf.d/net has notinhg but dns_domain=XXXX |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
In /etc/init.d I only have net.lo and my /etc/conf.d/rc has |
| 22 |
RC_PLUG_SERVICES="!net.eth0 !net.wlan0". |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Before using wicd, I had started manually my wlan0 using ifconfig , iwconfig |
| 25 |
and dhcpcd. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
This configuration works fine for my laptop. |
