Guixs, I reconfigured my system with wicd. My config.scm (in

...
(service (cons* (slim-service)
                 (wicd-service)
                 (dbus-service (list wicd))

But, whem there is error when use wicd-gtk with my normal user or with
root:
Failed to connect to socket /var/run/dbus/system_dbus_socket:
Connection refused

The most likely cause of this is that dbus-system was unable to start
because of a stale /var/run/dbus/pid file left over from a system crash
or improper shutdown.  IMO, we should add a service or two that clears
out /tmp and /var/run at early boot time as is normally done on other
systems.

For now, the solution is to run (as root):

  rm /var/run/dbus/pid
  deco enable dbus-system
  deco start dbus-system

I guess that 'wicd' should then start automatically, but if not you
could start it with "deco enable wicd" and "deco start wicd" as well.

It's works. I add my user to netdev group too.

Thanks,
