I'm not sure what happened, but within the last week or two networkmanager decided to stop working with wireless networks - I use knetworkmanager-svn primarily so that's where I first noticed the problem. When trying to connect to my home WEP-protected network (haven't tried with non-WEP yet), it immediately flashes a message - and I mean flash, it's up for milliseconds - and then returns to the disconnected icon. With the gnome applet it similarly fails - the rotating blue icon and then the disconnected icon. I have no idea why these aren't working, although I assume it's something underneath the frontends as both of the applets fail. There hasn't been a recent update to networkmanager, so perhaps it's the latest wireless_tools package. I'll check on that and report the results.
As of 5/18/07, my system is i686 and completely up-to-date (non-testing).
Thanks for any help on this issue!
Nick
Edit: As for the [SOLVED] tag - I'm not sure what I did, but after reordering my DAEMONS line and commencting everything in /etc/conf.d/wireless, it started working! Networkmanager is awfully finicky...
