Hello,

for my notebook I found a very good NetworkManager spare called wicd
(http://wicd.sourceforge.net/), it is a python based application to
handle WLAN.

I am a absolute python newbie. But this little appl. is pretty nice and
I want to bring it up and running on FR.

First I installed python manually following packages in this order:
libpython
python-core
python-lang
python-threading
libdbus
python-dbus
python-math
libcrypto
libssl
python-io
python-re
python-stringold
python-logging
bzip2
python-misc
python-pycairo
python-pygobject
python-shell
python-pygtk
python-fcntl
python-codecs
python-pickle
python-subprocesses
python-threading
python-xml

Allways the latest version from scaredyCat
(http://buildhost.automated.it/OM2007.2/packages/armv4t/).

I am able to enter 'python' in terminal and I get a valid answer.

Then I copied all files from wicd to there locations, replaced two PNG
files by the original one from pixmaps. After a reboot I see the appl.
at the list of appl..

But I could not start the appl. :-(. The dmesg shows me just an old
entry, so I don't know why the appl. ist not starting.

Where can I find some hints about the reasons/issues/problems etc.?

Is any python/FR guru able to give me a little help?
