BackTrack 4 Pre Final: can not start Wicd Network Manager (/usr/bin/wicd-client)
2009 July 25
Here’s the workaround:
Execute:
root@cbug-nest:~# /usr/bin/start-network
After that clicking Internet -> Wicd Network Manager (or type /usr/bin/wicd-client on terminal) should bring you the Wicd Manager
write /etc/init.d/wicd start
