[xubuntu-users] wicd works after reboot

[leegold]

As usual the second I posted about it,  it starts working. wicd started
working after a few reboots, it eventually found the wireless
implementation on my laptop and is working like a champ. So I'm
impressed:^) Sorry to pepper the mail list about this, but I wanted to
set the record straight.
