Important configuration hint for wicd

If you are using wicd to set up your WiFi, make sure to switch the "WPA Supplicant Driver" (in Preferences → Advanced Settings) to "nl80211", ignoring the text right underneath which says "You should almost always use wext as the WPA supplicant driver".

Found this at Arch Wiki. See the official Linux Wireless wiki for more info.
