First I'd like to say that I love the default color theme.
I have a laptop with Windows 10 installed, but I run a few different flavors of Linux via external SSDs. I have no trouble connecting via these systems or other LiveUSBs.
I used dd to create an antiX LiveUSB. However, when I boot and use Wicd Network Manager, the system sees the available wireless options but it cannot connect. Eventually it gives a "cannot obtain IP address" or something to that effect (I cannot cut-n-paste the error for obvious reasons).
Any hints?
