Just for the record. The original segfault was using 0.15 (downloaded
from tarball on saturday). The segfaults went away with 0.16 (out of
CVS), but I had no gui until I fixed my hosts file.

Also I dont really thinkg my networking was really in that bad of a
state. (at least from my persepctive). Both wireless and wired
connections work great with a dhcp server and other apps that really
heavily on a network connection (Pure data being the one I use most)
also work well.
