Didier,

Please, please, PLEASE post instructions on how to do everything
discussed in the preceding paragraph. I've had a lot of trouble
replacing NetworkManager/Wicd with wpa_supplicant and iwlist, even
though I know it's perfectly possible.

If you could place these instructions on the web and let us know the
URL, I know I'd be eternally grateful, and I bet I'm not alone.
