Wicd failure in openbox after gnome3 install

In my usual openbox I now get

When running wicd-client.

Anyone a clue what's going on?

Something with the new policy kit I guess, I have similar problem, I had to login as root to establish connection.

I still get connected, the daemon runs fine. It is just wicd-client that doesn't want to start.

It also does start in gnome...

Re: Wicd failure in openbox after gnome3 install

Update: replacing notification-daemon by xfce4-notifyd makes wicd work again but does not work so well in gnome.
