You need the iw package and net-tools i think.

I had this issue, as advised check what the interfaces are named with sudo ifconfig -a. Then update the Wicd preferences accordingly.

Not sure if I should log this as a bug?

If you're using wicd, make sure your wifi interface is the same wireless interface in its settings.

You can list your network devices with ifconfig -a as root.
You can find your network card with lspci -vv | grep -i Network as root. For some devices, you may need proprietary/nonfree software.

Hi guys, after installation I've got no wifi working.

When I start wicd it doesn't see wifi around the pc. Can you help me to figure it out how to solve this problem?
