config_eth0=( "dhcp" )

modules=( "wpa_supplicant" )
wpa_supplicant_wlan0="-Dwext"

Let's make sure it works! Can you connect manually using wlan0 up, essid="whatever", dhcp wlan0, etc.?

Try getting rid of your network config's , Wicd handles all of this for you.

Try removing wpa_supplicant.conf and remove everything from /etc/conf.d/net.
Also remove any net.* symlinks in /etc/init.d , except for net.lo which you need

Then you can configure wicd with whatever setting you want , like dhcp, ect.. from the prefernces menu
