Yet again I am totally confused trying to get a WiFi connection to work. The real problem is that I don't really understand what the Network panel applet is supposed to do for me. Is there any good HowTo or similar for this applet?
With this Eee, running KDE under Xandros, a comment box or whatever you'd call it appears next to the systray. Click it, and it displays the available signals in a pane. Not sure how it works in Gnome under Debian, 'cos I've never been in a position to use wi-fi with the flaptop, but should you not get a satisfactory answer soon, I'll fire it up and have a play - there are usually two (locked) access-points detectable here. They don't automagically wave at you - at least, with just a bog-standard installation they don't. /snip/ -- Tony Anson www.girolle.co.uk/
