Just to be clear -- before the upgrade I got a prompt for the root password before it would allow me to add a new wifi service to ites list, but it would connect to one already on its list automatically. Now it simply won't connect at all, even to a wifi service that it already know, and it doesn't even ask me for a root password. I can't connect to wifi at all. -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
