I just downloaded the code for wicd-1.7.2.1 (the latest release) and grep'd for ntpd in the source .py files. Nothing found. But, in wnettools.py are classes for setting up the base, wired, and wireless interfaces. In the wired interface class are two procedures to see if there's an actual connection; if there is none the function should return FALSE. I've not parsed all the code to see what calls wnettools.py to learn what is supposed to happen if the ethernet connection is not found. Anyone willing to work with me on tracing the code to figure out where the Sony goes off the rails?
