LinuxQuestions.org - Wicd on Fedora 10 will not connect to WPA/WPA2 network after install

Hi,

I just installed wicd-1.5.4 on Fedora 10, but I can't connect to WPA/WPA2 encrypted networks. I tried what it said on the main troubleshooting page on the Wicd website, but since I'm not running a Debian-based system, I don't have a /etc/network/interfaces file.

My /var/log/wicd/wicd.log file is as follows after trying to connect to an encrypted network:

Code:

2009/04/09 06:05:33 :: Attempting to authenticate...

2009/04/09 06:05:34 :: ifconfig eth0

2009/04/09 06:05:34 :: ifconfig wlan0

The last two lines repeat if Wicd is sitting idle. I have it set to use the wext driver under settings, and NetworkManager connects to any network, so I'm pretty sure it's not a driver issue. Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
