Network Manager Gnome is some sort of applet in the notification area that helps you to choose the wireless network you want to use. However, after installed this applet with:
sudo apt-get install network-manager-gnome
It showed “No Network Connection” (Sorry I forget to capture that dialog
)
Now you need to:
sudo gedit /etc/network/interfaces
And find those code:
iface eth1 inet dhcp
wireless-essid YOUR AP
wireless-key s:PASSWORD
Comment them!!
#iface eth1 inet dhcp
#wireless-essid YOUR AP
#wireless-key s:PASSWORD
Restart the computer (I hate to do this, there should be a better way~) then left-click on the new icon
There you go…

Could you send the answer to my e-mail?

But where is your email address?
I believe you can find same gadget in the latest version of Fedora as well. As for myself, I don’t need to do that anymore in 8.04.
