I've retested this. If the network-manager daemon is running, I find that any
attempt to get wicd to connect to my wireless router fails with an error
message of "bad password". (Also tested all three wicd UIs.) Attempts
succeed once network-manager is stopped. After switching back to wired and
starting network-manager, attempts to connect to wireless via wicd once again
fail with the same error.
