Loving XFCE4 but need a wireless config app like wpa_supplicant

Hi All,

I'm running Gentoo 3.14.14 on a thinkPad T440s.

The issue I have is that I would like to be able to run startx for an xsession and startxfce4 for xfce4.  I got so excited with this DE that I forgot to setup wpa_supplicant in X (wpa_gui) for my networks.

Is there a way I can bring that functionality back?  If not can I pull in a GUI app like Gnome has?


Kind Regards,

John

Try to install wicd-gtk ...it's very simple, i use it in some old machines.

There is also gnome network manager applet that will need some gnome packages to install
