Here, the wifi connection is finally working. It's - from an user point of view
- an big improvment, since I could'nt manage to connect to an wireless AP in WPA
mode with the older driver.

However, I nm-applet didn't worked well and I installed wicd (1.6.2.2) instead.

The only issue is a "unsupported platform" message when I launch "wicd" from the
terminal.
With "wicd-client", the "libnotify-Message" says "Unable to get session dbus:
Did not receive a reply". I assume however that it's unlikely related to the new
kernel...


Kind regards,

Samy
