After experimenting with wicd I've gone back to network manager. All is well on the networking front however I am having trouble stopping wicd completely.
I've stopped it starting up the daemon
chkconfig --list | grep wicd
returns empty
but when my kde windows starts up the wicd try icon start up.
I have Fedora 17 with KDE 64 bit.
I have removed knetworkmanager and installed Wicd-client in kde.
I would that Wicd doesn't ask me the root password every time I turn on my PC.
I have added a rule in /etc/sudoers to avoid this problem but Wicd continue to ask me root password.

Someone can help me?
I have installed wicd but can't get it to run! I have the green and black wifi icon. I typed sudo wicd-start in Aterm I got no error. Thanks for any help. System stats shows wicd is indeed installed. Also, the ath5k appears to be installed when I che...
Hi all
This works as i just did a successful installation of the latest wicd package. Although networkmanager is much better thatn before, wicd connects quicker and mostly importantly it never has any problem connecting after resuming from hybernation or standby.

When I was using initscripts when laptop goes suspend and then wake wicd used to reconect to the wifi or wired conection that is usefull when moving from one location to another with a diferent network (example from home to university)I am using systemd since 2 o 3 weeks, all the things are working like a charm execpt this one.
Hi there!
I know that wicd doesn't have support for VPN yet. So, I am wondering... is there any alternative to use wicd + VPN ? I have to use wicd instead of gnome network manager because I keep loosing my connection with the last one.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
Andres.
I'm running a fresh Fedora 17 minimal installation with Mate desktop. I have wicd-1.7.2.1-1.fc17.i686 installed.
On startup after gui login I see this message:
"Could not connect to wicd's D-Bus interface. Check the wicd log for error messages."
/var/log/wicd contains nothing un-toward, not surprising because xicd is not running.
Firstly, I must prophylactically express my unwillingness to use network-manager. To do such a thing, I might as well use Windoze. I'd rather go without. I like wicd. However, Network-Manager has no trouble connecting wirelessly and obtaining an IP, none at all. Since I've uninstalled network-manager, wicd will not obtain an IP address.
