Interesting. I figured the wireless applet would be a simple thing to use in freebsd. I am confused since it seems that there is active work on the applet, like this: http://monkey.org/freebsd/archive/freebsd-ports-bugs/200501/msg00967.htm l If people are patching it, I figured they must have it running. Does anyone know any sort of graphical client to find and connect to available networks? My device driver works, and I can connect at the command line. Or is there a way to run the Linux "NetworkManager" in FreeBSD: http://www.gnome.org/projects/NetworkManager/ <-----Original Message-----> >From: Kevin Oberman >Sent: 3/28/2006 10:46:21 AM >To: jono@mail2Juggler.com >Cc: freebsd-gnome@freebsd.org >Subject: Re: Wireless-applet > >> From: "Jono Juggler" >> Date: Tue, 28 Mar 2006 09:58:03 -0800 >> Sender: owner-freebsd-gnome@freebsd.org >> >> Hello, >> I have FreeBSD6 with gnomeapplets2 installed.
