Package: wicd Version: 1.6.2.2-4 Severity: normal Even though I have an ad-hoc network stored in wireless-settings.conf, wicd-client doesn't show it if the ESSID isn't currently used by one of the machines. Fortunately my other machine doesn't have such a problem, so that I can start the network on it first. But two machines using wicd won't be able to connect to each other without re-creating the network by clicking on Network -> Create an ad-hoc network (and entering all the parameters again).
So, after scanning the networks, wicd should be able to show *all* ad-hoc networks stored in wireless-settings.conf (there could be an option for that). -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.31-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.ISO8859-1 (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages wicd depends on: ii adduser 3.112 add and remove users and groups ii dbus 1.2.16-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.28 Debian configuration management sy ii dhcp3-client 3.1.3-1 DHCP client ii ethtool 6+20091202-1 display or change Ethernet device ii iproute 20090324-1 networking and traffic control too ii iputils-ping 3:20071127-2 Tools to test the reachability of ii lsb-base 3.2-23 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii net-tools 1.60-23 The NET-3 networking toolkit ii psmisc 22.8-1 utilities that use the proc file s ii python 2.5.4-5 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-dbus 0.83.0-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii python-glade2 2.16.0-1 GTK+ bindings: Glade support ii python-gtk2 2.16.0-1 Python bindings for the GTK+ widge ii python-support 1.0.6 automated rebuilding support for P ii python-urwid 0.9.9-2 curses-based UI/widget library for ii wireless-tools 30~pre9-3 Tools for manipulating Linux Wirel ii wpasupplicant 0.6.9-3 client support for WPA and WPA2 (I Versions of packages wicd recommends: ii gksu 2.0.2-2+b1 graphical frontend to su ii python-notify 0.1.1-2+b1 Python bindings for libnotify ii sudo 1.7.2p1-1 Provide limited super user privile Versions of packages wicd suggests: ii pm-utils 1.2.6.1-3 utilities and scripts for power ma -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
