At home I use a wired connection so did notice the following problem until I traveled and tried to connect wirelessly. The problem must have started sometime within the past month.
If I have wicd started by systemd, i.e. systemctl enable wicd The wired network is started fine but not the wireless. Instead, I see in the systemd journal wicd[290]: Failed to connect to non-global ctrl_ifname: wired error: No such file or directory wicd[290]: Failed to connect to non-global ctrl_ifname: wireless error: No such file or directory If I instead systemctl disable wicd, reboot, and then manually type wpa_supplicant -i wireless -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf -B it works. Indeed after I have booted I can start wicd and cannot get the error above, but the actual behavior is not consistent. My system is ~amd64, profile gnome/systemd My wireless driver is from the package broadcom-sta (wl) thanks in advance for any help. allan
