Thanks for answers. I have tried several apps, including yours Phillip and was unable to get them to work or compile. Unfortunately I need a wireless applet on this machine because I share it with another person who is not very computer literate. I did not mind typing in the commands to connect to various networks, but it is not sufficent for them. I thought FreeBSD could hang, but I had to switch to Fedora. I'll check back in a year or so and see if any progress has been made on this front. <-----Original Message----->=20 >From: Phillip Neumann >Sent: 3/29/2006 7:10:46 PM >To: jono@mail2Juggler.com;freebsd-gnome@freebsd.org >Subject: Re: Wireless-applet > >You can alwais use my ugly, not updated, wireless-gui wanabe proggy :-] > >hope someday have more time to make it usable... > > >http://sourceforge.net/projects/gwireless > > > >bye! > > >El mar, 28-03-2006 a las 11:31 -0800, Jono Juggler escribi=F3: >> Interesting.
