Hello list, I'm installing Gentoo on a Thinkpad laptop and I want to install wicd in place of the manually configured network, rather than installing the standard network setup and then ripping it out again to put wicd in its place.
The problem is that wicd insists* on a gtk interface, which would force me to install X etc. before the first boot, so that wicd could enable me to fetch all the sources. Is there any way to get a CLI version of wicd installed? * It really insists: even USE=-gtk emerge -pv wicd still throws the same error about missing config parameters in some X package. -- Rgds Peter.
