I'm trying to get my wifi set up under wheezy using wicd. I've followed all the instructions at:
https://wiki.debian.org/WiFi/HowToUse#Wicd When I do ~/$ wicd-client -n I get: "No wireless networks found." The following is the output from the session: (My username is 'tom'.) ~/$ cat /etc/network/interfaces # This file describes the network interfaces available on your system # and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5). # The loopback network interface auto lo iface lo inet loopback root@debian:/home/tom# adduser tom netdev The user `tom' is already a member of `netdev'. root@debian:/home/tom# root@debian:/home/tom# /etc/init.d/dbus reload [ ok ] Reloading system message bus config...done. root@debian:/home/tom# root@debian:/home/tom# /etc/init.d/wicd start [ ok ] Starting Network connection manager: wicd. root@debian:/home/tom# root@debian:/home/tom# exit exit ~/$ wicd-client -n Has notifications support True Loading...

The following is output of ifconfig and iwconfig: root@debian:/home/tom# ifconfig eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:1c:23:2f:f3:8f inet addr:192.168.0.14 Bcast:192.168.0.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::21c:23ff:fe2f:f38f/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:1027 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:981 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:471487 (460.4 KiB) TX bytes:159963 (156.2 KiB) Interrupt:17 lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:20 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:20 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:1544 (1.5 KiB) TX bytes:1544 (1.5 KiB) root@debian:/home/tom# root@debian:/home/tom# iwconfig lo no wireless extensions. wlan0 IEEE 802.11bg ESSID:off/any Mode:Managed Access Point: Not-Associated Tx-Power=0 dBm Retry long limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off Encryption key:off Power Management:on eth0 no wireless extensions. root@debian:/home/tom# What am I doing wrong? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
