Hi.

Here is my trouble : i can't connect with wifi anymore in sid...
When clicking on KNetworkManager, i don't have to enter the WPA key and there's no connection.
With Wicd, i have an error message telling that my WPA key is not the right key.

But in a Gnome Session, i can connect by wifi

This is a known bug. The simplest solution is to install network-manager-gnome and run nm-applet.
