Wicd doesn't connect, i try from the client tells me it's connected but it shows as not connected. If I use wpa_supplicant + dhcpcd (same as using wicd) works without problem.

This is the log:

Any help is appreciated :D

Your log is almost identical to mine except that I don't use dhcpcd (static ips) and I have an "Acess Point verification" at the end"

Code:

2011/04/11 00:26:31 :: Verifying AP association...
2011/04/11 00:26:31 :: Attempt 1 of 10...
2011/04/11 00:26:31 :: Successfully associated.
2011/04/11 00:26:31 :: Connecting thread exiting.
2011/04/11 00:26:32 :: Sending connection attempt result Success


How do you know that it's not connected? have you checked it with 'iwconfig'? what client are you using for the wicd (wicd-gtk??) ? what about the configuration files?

Yeah i checked with iwconfig, the interface isn't asociated and i use wicd-gtk but anyway the service would be enough i think.

can you try:
Code:

emerge net-wireless/iw


then open up the wicd GUI, go to the Advanced tab, and change the driver from 'wext' to 'nl80211' ?

I use nl80211... but anyway try wext and I have the same problem.
If i understand well iw only work with wep (i dont have access to the router to change that)... anyway i can connect with wpa_supplicant.

edit: i didn't read well, i can use nl89211 without iw
