Hi.Here is my problem :on Kubuntu Oneiric, I can't run nm-appletbecause I get a conflict between GTK+2 and GTK+3.As a consequence I cannot activate any mobile connectionfrom Trinity. Is there a way to get nm-applet working, or touse a different application for the same purpose ?ThanksD.

Uninstall our kgtk file dialogs, or do this: export LD_PRELOAD="" nm-applet Should work. Also wicd++ Calvin On May 3, 2012 5:41 AM, "Werner Joss" <werner(a)hoernerfranzracing.de> wrote:

For me, wireless connection always works in Lubuntu, but not in Trinity, even using wicd. It fails to validate a correct password, be it with WEP or WPA. Using a 2-WIRE modem. Is there a prefix that I need to include in the password? Or disable some daemon process? (BTW, went back to Lubuntu 11.10, then was able to install and activate Trinity desktop.) -Robert

Wireless connection - an apparent solution. In /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections I found a file 2WIRE048, which had been created when networking in Lubuntu: <quote> [connection] id=2WIRE048 uuid=[modem's uuid number] type=802-11-wireless [802-11-wireless] ssid=2WIRE048 mode=infrastructure mac-address=[modem's mac-address] security=802-11-wireless-security [802-11-wireless-security] key-mgmt=none wep-key0=[10 digit WEP key] [ipv4] method=auto [ipv6] method=auto </quote> I copied this into a new file named 2WIRE[number], then filled in the appropriate id, ssid, mac-address, and wep-key0 (which in this case is wpa2-key0). The uuid didn't seem to matter, but maybe best to find and use it. Then ran wicd, which used the new file and connected successfully. NOTE: in wicd click on the network's Properties, then the Information button to get mac-address and encryption type. -Robert
