Package: wicd Version: 1.6.1-3 Severity: important I have the following problem: each time I choose the wired connection (this is the default), the settings of the DHCP client get modified, which trashes the connection. This problem doesn't occur when I start the DHCP client from a shell, so that the problem necessarily comes from wicd.
I have a script that does such a modification, but it is used for wireless only (beforescript settings in wireless-settings.conf, and that's for SSID's that aren't even reachable here). wired-settings.conf contains: [wired-default] afterscript = None broadcast = None predisconnectscript = None dns3 = None postdisconnectscript = None dns1 = None lastused = True use_static_dns = False default = 1 netmask = None dns2 = None beforescript = None disconnectscript = None ip = None gateway = None use_global_dns = False so that no scripts should be executed. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-1-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=POSIX, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages wicd depends on: ii adduser 3.110 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.27 Debian configuration management sy ii dhcp3-client 3.1.2-1 DHCP client ii iproute 20090324-1 networking and traffic control too ii lsb-base 3.2-22 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii net-tools 1.60-23 The NET-3 networking toolkit ii psmisc 22.7-1 utilities that use the proc file s ii python 2.5.4-2 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-dbus 0.83.0-1 simple interprocess messaging syst ii python-glade2 2.14.1-3 GTK+ bindings: Glade support ii python-gtk2 2.14.1-3 Python bindings for the GTK+ widge ii python-support 1.0.3 automated rebuilding support for P ii python-urwid 0.9.8.4-1 curses-based UI/widget library for ii wireless-tools 29-2 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 sudo 1.7.0-1 Provide limited super user privile Versions of packages wicd suggests: ii pm-utils 1.2.5-4 utilities and scripts for power ma -- debconf information: * wicd/users: vinc17 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
