Thanks for the "leonidas on slackware" wallpaper btw that you posted a
link to here a while ago. Very nice.

Sure, but I only stole that from Fedora 11. Here is another wallpaper-
this one stolen from Fedora 12:

p.s. I think I still like the leonidas better.

The log files should give a pretty reasonable explanation of why it's
not restarting (messages, debug, syslog), also I wouldn't do
`rc.inet1 stop' - that takes down every interface on the machine, try
`rc.inet1 wlan0_restart' instead. Then have a look at the log files...

I had something similar on my laptop that I "fixed" by a rmmod/modprobe
sequence on the affected modules after coming out of suspend. I have
no idea wehther it was the best solution, but it worked, and never
bothered to look further.

A "full" install is: everything in the "slackware" tree.
As wicd is in the "extra" one, it MUST be installed by hand, too many
packages in "extra" conflict with those in "slackware" (or even each
other) for to auto-install them.

This is the contents (subdirs only) of "extra" in 13.0, it should be
in the DVD image too:
