Solved and saved by wicd! |
| 29 |
I am now sending this e-mail with my wireless connection. Don't know how |
| 30 |
this magic happens but all is fine after the net stuff from baselayout |
| 31 |
was thrown out the window and wicd installed as suggested by Alan on |
| 32 |
another e-mail thread. I even get the wireless LED working. My |
| 33 |
/var/log/messages is clean, etc. Great. Thanks. Since wpa_supplicant is |
| 34 |
used by wicd the problem must be either the way /etc/conf.d/net is |
| 35 |
handling the network setup or my ignorance on how to configure |
| 36 |
wpa_supplicant by hand. The iwlagn driver is good. |
