/var/log/wicd/wicd.log -- could you please provide it? sorry for the late answer. I expected an email notice from the bug tracking system and this notice never came! I have extracted a piece of the log file you asked for when wicd connects and reconnects. I have checked that the same thing happens every 10 seconds or so.
thanks for looking into this, eric 2009/06/09 20:05:54 :: ifconfig eth0 2009/06/09 20:05:54 :: ifconfig eth1 2009/06/09 20:05:55 :: ifconfig eth0 2009/06/09 20:05:55 :: ifconfig eth1 2009/06/09 20:05:56 :: ifconfig eth0 2009/06/09 20:05:56 :: ifconfig eth1 2009/06/09 20:05:56 :: ifconfig eth0 2009/06/09 20:05:56 :: ifconfig eth1 2009/06/09 20:05:57 :: ifconfig eth0 2009/06/09 20:05:57 :: ifconfig eth1 2009/06/09 20:05:58 :: ifconfig eth0 2009/06/09 20:05:58 :: ifconfig eth1 2009/06/09 20:05:59 :: ifconfig eth0 2009/06/09 20:05:59 :: ifconfig eth1 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: ifconfig eth0 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: ifconfig eth1 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: returning automatically reconnect when connection drops True 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: Connecting to wireless network mynetwork 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: Putting interface down 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: ifconfig eth1 down 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: Releasing DHCP leases... 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: iwconfig eth1 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: Setting false IP... 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: ifconfig eth1 0.0.0.0 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: ifconfig eth0 0.0.0.0 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: Stopping wpa_supplicant and any DHCP clients 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: killall wpa_supplicant 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: Flushing the routing table... 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: ip route flush dev eth1 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: ip route flush dev eth0 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: Generating psk... 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: ['/usr/bin/wpa_passphrase', 'mynetwork', 'mypassphrase'] 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: Attempting to authenticate... 2009/06/09 20:06:00 :: ['wpa_supplicant', '-B', '-i', 'eth1', '-c', '/var/lib/wicd/configurations/da0b95af8470', '-D', 'wext'] 2009/06/09 20:06:01 :: Putting interface up... 2009/06/09 20:06:01 :: ifconfig eth1 up 2009/06/09 20:06:01 :: iwconfig eth1 mode managed 2009/06/09 20:06:01 :: ['iwconfig', 'eth1', 'essid', 'mynetwork', 'channel', '1', 'ap', 'DA:0B:95:AF:84:70'] 2009/06/09 20:06:01 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS DISCONNECTED 2009/06/09 20:06:02 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS ASSOCIATED 2009/06/09 20:06:03 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS 4WAY_HANDSHAKE 2009/06/09 20:06:04 :: iwconfig eth1 2009/06/09 20:06:04 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS 4WAY_HANDSHAKE 2009/06/09 20:06:05 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS 4WAY_HANDSHAKE 2009/06/09 20:06:06 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS 4WAY_HANDSHAKE 2009/06/09 20:06:07 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS 4WAY_HANDSHAKE 2009/06/09 20:06:08 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS 4WAY_HANDSHAKE 2009/06/09 20:06:09 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS 4WAY_HANDSHAKE 2009/06/09 20:06:10 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS 4WAY_HANDSHAKE 2009/06/09 20:06:11 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS ASSOCIATED 2009/06/09 20:06:12 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS GROUP_HANDSHAKE 2009/06/09 20:06:13 :: WPA_CLI RESULT IS COMPLETED 2009/06/09 20:06:13 :: Running DHCP 2009/06/09 20:06:13 :: /sbin/dhclient eth1 2009/06/09 20:06:13 :: Internet Systems Consortium DHCP Client V3.1.1 2009/06/09 20:06:13 :: Copyright 2004-2008 Internet Systems Consortium. 2009/06/09 20:06:13 :: All rights reserved. 2009/06/09 20:06:13 :: For info, please visit http://www.isc.org/sw/dhcp/ 2009/06/09 20:06:13 :: 2009/06/09 20:06:14 :: Listening on LPF/eth1/00:0e:35:83:f1:ef 2009/06/09 20:06:14 :: Sending on LPF/eth1/00:0e:35:83:f1:ef 2009/06/09 20:06:14 :: Sending on Socket/fallback 2009/06/09 20:06:14 :: DHCPREQUEST on eth1 to 255.255.255.255 port 67 2009/06/09 20:06:14 :: DHCPACK from 192.168.0.254 2009/06/09 20:06:14 :: bound to 192.168.0.11 -- renewal in 341472 seconds. 2009/06/09 20:06:14 :: DHCP connection successful 2009/06/09 20:06:14 :: Connecting thread exiting. 2009/06/09 20:06:14 :: ifconfig eth1 2009/06/09 20:06:14 :: IP Address is: 192.168.0.11 2009/06/09 20:06:14 :: ifconfig eth0 2009/06/09 20:06:14 :: ifconfig eth1 2009/06/09 20:06:15 :: ifconfig eth0 2009/06/09 20:06:15 :: ifconfig eth1 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
