you need to remove the comment from:

  #iface wlan0 inet

and from:

  #auto wlan0

if you want it to autostart.

-- Cheers, Marc Sorry Marc, as I said above, only what's in interfaces 
as I've shown works, if I do what you say and remove the #es, I get no 
connection at all, not even eth0! Autostart works - only problem is 
'link quality' which is too poor to be of any use(2%-12%)and thus 
knetworkmanager reports wlan0 as disconnected. brian
