I can see and get a wireless connection (usually via wicd-cli), but
dhclient fails to get an IP address:
# iwconfig wlan0
wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:"RIGHTSCALE"
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: 00:0E:83:67:74:B0
Bit Rate=48 Mb/s Tx-Power=14 dBm

Encryption key:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=51/70 Signal level=-59 dBm
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:2 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0
OK, I lied. Just now trying to prove this wouldn't work:
# dhclient -v wlan0

However ... wicd-cli failed to get a DHCP lease earlier.
I'll investigate further and follow up.
