I started to chime in last night, but my brain took a vacation. Maybe the "complex" was what happened to me, too. Last night I was only going to say "nm" didn't used to (and may still not) play nice with similar packages installed on the same machine. It was an either/or situation. I took the "or" with wicd then wicd-curses and have never looked back. That's with hardwires, though. I haven't had an excuse to spend time duking it out with attaching wireless. What fried my brain last night was on trying to remember if nm had been too "complicated" and thus not user-friendly for *me*. I still see other people rave about it. That's cool. At the end of the day, it means our brains function (comprehend) differently, but we all seem to be arriving at the same place: Connected to whatever it is we need to use. That's where the beauty of Debian offering CHOICE comes into play. Cindy :) -- Cindy-Sue Causey Talking Rock, Pickens County, Georgia, USA * runs with birdseed *
