Instead you have to configure the /etc/wicd/*.conf files
manager-settings.conf wired-settings.conf wireless-settings.conf
they each have a man page.
I have not had to do this directly before. Usually wicd shows me the
available SSIDs and then I can do the configuration from the GUI.
I had to play with those for a day before I could get my interface to
work.
Ok. I'll try some more here.
I have the feeling that something is broken at a lower level.
I will try adding the ESSID to wireless-settings.conf
What does
lsmod |grep 8185 return??
Nothing.
lsmod |grep 8180 shows modules rtl8180, mac80211, eeprom_93cx6, and
cfg80211 loaded.
OK, the module is not loaded.
Now do
modprobe rtl8185 and repeat the lsmod check.
If lsmod still shows nothing it means the module isn't loading,no
matter what ndiswrapper said. You may have to go to the realtek site to
get the linux drivers and compile them yourself. This may not be the
end of your troubles. I don't know, but doubt, there are any firmware
modules for the 8185 included in the firmware-realtek package as there
is no driver in the current kernel. Check the realtek site for firmware
while you are there.
Good Luck!!
