With the default Sharp Ubuntu "Rom" which Window Manmager do you use?And do you have some optimise tips?Currently I am using XFCE, a bit faster as the default Gnome.Though LXCE is faster, the Gnome network manager isn`t working.
Autostart network-manager(nm-applet) in LXDEFirst, edit /etc/xdg/autostart/nm-applet.desktop, this file appears as follows;———————————————————————[Desktop Entry]Name=Network ManagerComment=Control your network connectionsIcon=nm-device-wirelessExec=nm-applet –sm-disableTerminal=falseType=ApplicationOnlyShowIn=GNOME;XFCE;X-GNOME-Bugzilla-Bugzilla=GNOMEX-GNOME-Bugzilla-Product=NetworkManagerX-GNOME-Bugzilla-Component=generalX-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=trueX-Ubuntu-Gettext-Domain=nm-applet———————————————————————-Edit the file, make sure OnlyShowIn contains LXDE,OnlyShowIn=GNOME;XFCE;LXDE;then,$ mkdir ~/.config/autostart$ cp /etc/xdg/autostart/nm-applet.desktop ~/.config/autostart/This will autostart network manager(nm-applet) after reboot.
Are you running Debian or Ubuntu? Ahh switched to wicd, no driver problems? I tried it before but somehow it deleted my Wireless driver.
