Re: ndiswrapper and kde problem

do you have localhost listed in your /etc/hosts? like

127.0.0.1        localhost.localdomain    localhost billgates4ever

Re: ndiswrapper and kde problem

glad:  You can make this much easier on yourself by using the 'network' daemon on the DAEMONS array in rc.conf.  The comments in that file describe exactly how to properly configure it.

I use the folowing settings:

lo="lo 127.0.0.1"
wlan0="dhcp"
wlan_wlan0="wlan0 essid MyESSID"
INTERFACES=(lo wlan0)
