I am currently in netdev, and just couple of days ago wicd 95% of the
times started fine (recently I did some upgrades, including the lenny
kernel).
debian-liv:/home/liviu# groups liviu
liviu : liviu dialout cdrom floppy audio video plugdev netdev wheel
I also restarted dbus, without any change in wicd behaviour. I also
get this behaviour in newly booted system.
debian-liv:/home/liviu# /etc/init.d/dbus restart
* Stopping PulseAudio Daemon
No process in pidfile `/var/run/pulse/pid' found running;
none killed.

There is also the alpha (and under little development) airconfig [1],
but I will try these only when everything else fails.
Thank you
