I forgot to mention, I am using a D-LINK DWA-121 [Realtek RTL8188CUS] using 
the kernel rtl8192cu module. But I didn't have to do anything, manually, to 
get the drivers/modules loaded.

I just did a 'ps -A' to check for wpa_supplicant and then used 'iwconfig' 
to see if the wireless extensions were working, and that provided me with 
the interface name to put into wicd.
