The most likely cause of this is that dbus-system was unable to start
because of a stale /var/run/dbus/pid file left over from a system crash
or improper shutdown. IMO, we should add a service or two that clears
out /tmp and /var/run at early boot time as is normally done on other
systems.
For now, the solution is to run (as root):
rm /var/run/dbus/pid
deco enable dbus-system
deco start dbus-system
I guess that 'wicd' should then start automatically, but if not you
could start it with "deco enable wicd" and "deco start wicd" as well.
