Package: wicd
Version: 1.6.1-3
Severity: normal

I have unstable wifi card/drivers/connection. Sometimes something bad
happens with the WiFi connection, and connection get dropped:

-8<--- /var/log/syslog ---
kernel: [2252392.196044] wlan0: no probe response from AP
00:1a:92:44:3a:c6 - disassociating
->8-

Wicd doesn't make any attempt to reconnect after this event, though
'Automatically connect to this network' checkbox is selected.

That didn't change a thing on the first 24 hours…

but then, after having enabled debugging mode, I haven't be able to
reproduce this bug as easily as previously, only once in a tiny week,
and with no traces in the logs.

I'm closing this bug for now, and I'll reopen/open a new one if it
comes back.
