Netbook 10.04 - Wireless / WICD Problems...

[algomedic]

I've installed Ubuntu Netbook 10.04 and the wireless does not work. I've read to install WICD and use that instead. Problem is, it tells me to uninstall "Network Manager" which I did through:

sudo apt-get remove NetworkManager

When I go to install WICD, it states:

Error: Conflicts with the installed package 'network-manager'

Any ideas on how to fully uninstall Network Manager or a fix to why wireless and wired does not work with Ubuntu Netbook 10.04...

Thank in advance.

Find network-manager package in synaptic and uninstall it.After that install wicd.
