Comment # 14 on bug 1157394 from Russell Sandish

Re wicked not working, I just tried configuring wifi via wicked using a canned
configuration, and now it does not work. When I first raised this issue, wicked
would still work using a canned configuration, the problem was that yast2
failed to configure wicked. So it appears we have been hit by multiple bugs, or
at least incompatibilities between different parts of the system.

For now, I've fallen back to using NetworkManager, which I used to use up until
about 6 months ago, when I discovered it had some problems with some Access
Points, and switched to wicked. I'll zypper dup again in the next couple of
days, and I'll post an update.

If there's any logs you'd like to see, or other info please let me know, and
I'll post them here.

The syslog grepped for wicked has the following messages:
