No wicd, no network

[Dotan Cohen]

I have been using wicd to connect to networks on my laptop's Kubuntu
9.10 install with no problems for several months. Now when I start the
machine I get a dialogue box asking for my password for wicd. Even
though I give it the correct password I cannot start wicd. This is
what I get when I try in Konsole:

✈dcl:~$ sudo wicd
[sudo] password for dotancohen:
✈dcl:~$ wicd-client
Importing pynotify failed, notifications disabled.
Has notifications support False

Can't connect to the daemon, trying to start it automatically...
Connected.

Still no wicd icon, and I am not connected to the network! What must I
do from here? Thanks!
