I don't have wireless.  I have never have had wireless.

Not much point setting one without first fixing the other.

I did come up with this error last night.

~]$ system-config-firewall

(system-config-firewall.py:9848): libglade-WARNING **: Error loading

'/usr/share/system-config-firewall/system-config-firewall_48.png': No
such file or directory

    self.icon = icon_theme.load_icon("%s_48" % APP_NAME, 48, 0)
gobject.GError: Icon 'system-config-firewall_48' not present in theme

Maybe its related.

P.S.  Could this be a ndiswrapper thing (or whatever).  I have noticed a
lot of discussion on the list re: wireless, although I am not.
